Popular Post Headhunter Posted March 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Posted March 24, 2023 Just getting started on the late fall craft show inventory. Found some interesting designs online and decided to try them out. Will get to making better versions of these when I can utilize specifically cut wood selections rather than just what's in the 'remains' piles. The usual culprits - walnut, maple, mesquite, alder and white oak. The white oak was recovered from a JD barrel planter that was retired and replaced. 'Bout time I actually posted something rather than just click on an emoji or make a smart - @&% remark! John Morris, Cal, Grandpadave52 and 4 others 4 3 Quote

Thanx, Gerald. I got tired of the simple straight sides and cutting off a usable portion of the blank for the first ring so I tried something new. After cutting/drilling the blank I square up the edge on the RM and then run a small trim router around each side. I use either a 45* chamfer or 1/4" roundover bit. Gives them a pretty nice look. You know me. Just gotta do something different! Grandpadave52, Cal and Gerald 3 Quote
Grandpadave52 Posted March 25, 2023 Report Posted March 25, 2023 Love them all. Hard to choose a favorite among the offerings, but if forced to, it would be second from left, back row in first picture which I think it big pictures 3 & 4. Regardless, they all are amazingly unique. knockonit, Headhunter and Cal 2 1 Quote

Gene Howe Posted March 25, 2023 Report Posted March 25, 2023 Part of the "go organic" movement. Plant your own gun barrels. Seeds available for most gauges. Cal, Gerald and Grandpadave52 3 Quote

Cut the top ring in a hex shape and saved throwing out good wood. But I like yours better Headhunter, Grandpadave52 and Cal 1 1 1 Quote
