November 5, 20223 yr Popular Post On Oct 19 the Wednesday's Wisdom had a video on mushrooms and I swear there was a video on a natural edge wine glass but I can't find it. I had some time to play and decided to give the mushrooms a shot. I have a Linden/Basswood tree out back that drops up to 3" diameter limbs at times. This year when cleaning up I decided to bring some in to give them a try on the lathe. Turns out they hold their bark like it was glued on. Found out turning a mushroom and grabbed the biggest limb and turned a wine glass. Tear out was a big problem with the Basswood but sharp tools proved to be the answer again.
