Another week gone by. The sun is getting a little lower in the sky but the days are still hot and humid.

 

A really warm welcome is extended to all of the new members to The Patriot Woodworker. We've been blessed with some really talented folks. As mentioned last week, we'll be spotlighting these turners each week. Today's lucky winner is a turner who celebrates Christmas all year. Ron Altier has been giving showing us his beautiful turnings and ornaments for the past 6 years! His latest endeavors are these two awesome turnings 

 

 

Check out Ron's work, which by the way isn't limited to ornaments, here-

Most turners know the name Carl Jacobson and if you turn bottle stoppers you should know about Ruth Niles' stainless steel bottle stoppers. Carl has put up a You Tube video demonstrating Ruth's stoppers and some of her turning accessories. In my opinion, you cannot do better than the Niles stoppers.

 

 

 

New member and turner Gerald, posted a picture of his beautiful "Pink Magnolia" vase. Here's a video showing how a vase or "weed pot" can be turned.

 

 

 

 

Safe Turning!

Thank you!!

I love Ron's Gnomes and Faces! I have shared them on Facebook many times!

Good information, this is a neat idea. Already looking forward to the next one!
