So much to learn, so little time.....
Here is my entry, my very first ever turning. I turned it Sunday on Pete Jordans lathe. Ash center, cherry then oak. Sanded to 400 grit and given a liberal dose of watco danish oil. My wife has it on her dresser to put her rings in when not on her hand.
Steve that is absolutely awesome. You did a great job. Love the different woods. I did that with a box I turned last Sunday with Ash and Walnut. Looks mighty fine.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

I think we've got a ringer here........... I've been set up.......AGAIN......... First turning................... Right! I was born on a Saturday but it wasn't last Saturday! Luckily for me.......there's no rules.....Therefore I don't have to enter my own contest!

Like I told you before, Steve, I can only imagine all the stuff you'd be turning out if you had your very own lathe!!! Great job on the goblet, my friend!!!

60 grit is a turning tool, ain't it?

Do I get credit for "First Entry" or is there a penalty for being too quick on the trigger?
Yoga class makes me feel like a total stud, mostly because I'm about as flexible as a 2x4.
"Design"? Possibly. "Intelligent"? Sure doesn't look like it from this angle.

You just get credit for an entry Lee.........No rules other than you must turn your own goblet.

Lee, if you make a copy of the pic, then rename the copy as something else, the system will allow you to post it twice.Originally Posted by Lee DeRaud

Ken,
If you drop 396 big block in your mini then you too could turn like Steve!

Well, the bark may give a little extra flavor to the beverage of your choice but here's my first entry into the contest. I turned it a while back but since there are no rules I guess I can post it here. There will be more to come.

Steve,
I can't wait until you let me work on my lathe. If I promise to clean up all the shavings can I have a little time this weekend?
Actually, great job! I have parent-teacher conferences this week but after that I will try my first goblet and I hope it will be half as good as yours.
