October 12, 20187 yr Popular Post Most of you know that I dabble with Christmas tree ornaments and that sometimes my mind gets off the main road. I had a design in my mind and kept drawing and improving the design. It is hard to tell in the pictures that it has four extensions of the same design. I didn't know how it would turn out, so I made it of pine. I wish now I had used a quality hardwood. Edited October 12, 20187 yr by Ron Altier wrong picture
October 12, 20187 yr That's really cool. Are you one of those guys that only makes one of a thing? I am. But, even though it's neat in pine, you could consider it a prototype and do one...or more... in a hardwood. Walnut would really set off that silver dangle.
October 12, 20187 yr Author Gene I've made so many different things, from rocking chairs to modern art figures. I have limited space now and can only do small projects. The mini lathe allows for me to have fun and be creative too. When I made this one I wasn't sure where I was going with it, I wish now that I would have used an exotic wood.
October 13, 20187 yr Popular Post I think it looks great like it is. Make it in maple with the same colors. Maybe just me but looks like a pregnant woman upside down.

October 13, 20187 yr we have about 32 boxes of Christmas related decorations. I'm not inclined to add to that pile. besides, my fat fingers don't do little stuff very well.
