As many of you know, Lew (our turning forum moderator) is a product tester for Easy Wood Tools.  He receives no pay or compensation for this, but he does get to play with some prototype tools and hopefully have some extra fun.  We really appreciate his hard work and expertise which he so willingly shares with us, he does a great job.  I wanted to give him a little recognition for all of his hard work...  Here is a sneak peak for all of you to see, our upcoming 1/2 page ad in American Woodturner Magazine.  Thanks Lew, for all you do!

Thank You. I really appreciate being associated with the awesome folks at Easy Wood Tools.

 

Thank You, Jim, for using one of my turnings in the ad.

 

And... who would want or need any pay or compensation for being able to play with such fantastic tools!

 

 

i'm good at breaking stuff!!

 

Nice looking ad! Way to go LEW!!

Outstanding.  Nice work Lew.

Great looking piece Lew. Give us another closeup shot.

That's one purdy little jar, lew. Congrats on the shout out from Jim at EWT. Like @GeraldGerald said, can we see a bigger picture.

Gerald / Gene  here you go, thanks.  It really is a pretty piece.

well shoot, i'll make something if you send me some tools to try out.  PM for my address and info.

What a gorgeous piece. Thanks, Jim. 

I'll bet Lew had fun turning that ugly piece of Manzanita into that piece of art. Bet he was glad he had those EWTs, too.

Thanks for the closeup.  Can really see the beauty of it now.

I think Jim must have photoshopped that! I don't believe it was that nice looking.

 

Here it is on the workbench. It was turned completely with Easy Wood Tools-

Amazing how the same piece can look so different with each photo

A great guy....A great company......A beautiful piece.  Well done Lew.   

Lew I like your pic better. maybe lighting or the wood oxidized to change the color. If the AWB is not correct the colors will change significantly. Great piece and you answered my question as to it being one piece.

A great thread...Very deserving recognition to Lew for a magnificient work of art and appreciation to Jim & EWT for the support given to TPW and the members here.

My workbench is lit by a 4 foot LED 2 tube fixture. The camera was set to full automatic.

That looks even better than the PhotoShop version,
