Lathe-ring!

A little more lathing today. A couple rings; one zebra wood and one acrylic.

Woodturning: A Classic.

Day six.
Today I turned my first bowl on a lathe! There is no finish on the wood; I'm not sure which kind I want to use yet. I'd really like to turn some things much larger. But I'll take my time getting there. I just snagged a couple of logs from a downed tree in the neighborhood. Once I get them chopped up I'll test my skills. I've really wanted to turn a lamp shade sometime soon. Maybe I can swing it with one of these logs.
