Started this project as a way to use small pieces of wood and add to product line. Got started with Spalted wood and it seems I have a lot in the shop. So I turned some plain buttons for the JaHo also. Started trying to use JaHo today and after starting found that the chuck holding par was too big to go all the way around so more tomorrow when I get couple screws. Oh also experimented with gilding wax and liming

 

 

Now thats just a cool idea. Spalted pieces are great. The gilded ones are very nice. Will be great additions to your offerings IMO.

Great idea.  What size magnet did you use?

Those look great @Gerald! The gilding wax really adds pizzazz!!

WOW Gerald. That is absolutely amazing !!!

And it continues. Today got the JaHo ornamental jig going. Have to do a slow feed with this jig. Shape of the disc also makes a difference. I dyed these first so that the cuts will shine. Also it is time consuming changing the round table each cut . Care must be exercised to get matching cuts , it is easy to go too deep. 

 

 

 

Aldo did some tye dying on some plain blanks. More later. 

Looks really nice I guess, like everything, there’s a learning curve 

Interesting. Really cool embellishments. Looking forward to seeing more and the progression. 

This is the collection. Have a few more started for the JaHo jig but no hurry on that. 

 

Of coarse my wife took two of the best.

Those are spectacular Gerald.

She took a green one done on JaHo and a silver done with spirialing.

This is the green one and I think this is the best pattern so far. Was cut a bit deeper than the others.

Had these prepped so finished them today. We will see how they sell tomorrow. If not then got Christmas covered. 

Wow! Nice looking! That Jaho jig is really making some awesome designs!

 

Good luck with them Gerald, a beautiful collection

Those look great.  The JaHo jig is working nicely like you've got it zeroed in.
