I have been dragging my feet on this one. It got sidelined for the Scroll saw I posted a few weeks ago. Most of the hold up was because I was not looking foward to turning the knobs. It was missing a couple and my wife thought it deserved something hand turned. I have never turned spheres before. They always seemed intimidating. I also had to make a new rip scale and miter scale. A friend of mine was restoring a GWI also. He made the pattern up in Excel and gave me a copy. I got a wild hair today and decided to finish it all up.

Here is the before pic. I was looking at it on CL and my wife looks over my shoulder and says "That's pretty you should buy it". You don't have to tell me twice. She noticed it in the garage a couple of days later and asked what it was. I told her it was that pretty on CL that she told me to buy. Her response, "That ugly thing?"
