Somedays, that is all I have to work with..

 

OK, dug out the footpath to this "thing"

And even found some chisels stash on it, under a bunch of over stuff..

So, cut off the excess on the blank, measured a few times to find a center point.    Then add a drive spur..

Gave it a spin to see how it would go..

I never took the lathe out of granny gear, but I got things close to roughed out..

Has a collar and a tenon on one end, and..leg set up.JPG

A recess for the legs.    Motor for the lathe was getting warm. I'm getting worn out.   Time to give both a rest to cool down... Next time, I might finish this turning?   Maybe..
