Every other month we have a chapter challenge that the president picks. This first one is an hour glass. The first one I did was an inside out turning with walnut. It looked very cool but had some small flaws. I couldn't turn in something with flaws. I didn't have the time or wood to do another so I made the standard out of quarter sawn sycamore. It has five coats of Arm-R-Seal satin.

That’s really neat! What’s the time it measures?

I thought about making one When American Woodturner ran an article on them . Just lost interest. How hard was it to do?

That's a neat project. Where did you get the glass?

Pretty danged cool Rusty!

You can get the glass on Amazon. Many different sizes and elapsed time

@ Lew. It measures one hour.

 

@ Gerald. This one wasn’t hard. The one I did that was inside out was a challenge. I will try another inside out but didn’t have the time for this challenge.

 

@ Steve. Our President bought a bunch of them from Woodcraft years ago. He gave them out for free with the condition you had to make one for the challenge.
