Quick video where I make a little wooden family, to match my family (click the youtube link, above) - Dad, Mom, and 2 girls and a boy. A fun project, my kids love the results, but I use wood from a tree in my back yard, dead for a while, and it was horrible for turning. Just crumbled apart. Results are okay, but I'm not sure I'd try to turn that wood again. I just gave up on getting a "perfect" surface and just went with "serviceable." Maybe further down into the main trunk I'd find better quality wood, or something. I'll try out a bowl from there some day, but without any real expectations!

Comments welcome.
