Wood, Wood and More Wood


You may not have guessed this but if you are doing wood turning you need wood.

There are all sorts of resources.

So once I got the bug, I was searching round for any bit of wood I could (safely) put on the lathe.

This goblet was made from a bit of old fence post in my workshop. There was a dead knot in the wood which dropped out shortly after I had finished turning it. So it can only be used for your enemies.

You fill it with a cheap red wine (as they stain the best) while holding your finger over the hole. Then as they take it from you, you take your finger off the hole (making sure it is facing them of course)

Also from bits

I have also made a walking stick (with captive ring) from pine for Psi provided by Psi
Twirling stick for one of Psi's mates, wood provided by Psi
Spinning top from scrap of pine
