I've been working on this piece for the past few days, and finally finished it up tonight. The turning went pretty quick, but all the hand sanding took some time.
This was made from another of the cutoffs I received last month (if you can all a 10" x 30" x 2" board a cutoff!)
It's Paduk, and yes the shop is orange, the lathe is orange and my shirts are now orange.
It's been a while since I turned any paduk and it reminded me how nice it turns and finishes.
It's 10" x 10" x 1 1/2" and I gave it some little feet to stand on. So far it's just got 1 coat of antique oil and I'll probably add a couple more before buffing.
