February 18, 201412 yr John those are outstanding, absolutely cool looking and great quality. The tones are nice along with the discoloration. What kind of lathe are you turning these on? John MorrisThe Patriot Woodworker
February 19, 201412 yr Author right now I'm using Rockler's excelsior lathe. it's a starting point for me and I'm hoping light enough at 100 pounds to take along during camping trips and craft shows. I wonder if the hotels would mind me filling the room with sawdust and shavings?Round Barn WoodCrafts, Plymouth WIroundbarnwoodcrafts@hotmail.com

February 25, 201412 yr Those look awesome John. I love the spalded Maple. I have got to get busy and get a few turned. I also have a few just stylus kits to turn. I like the stylus tip on the pen, that will made it very useful today.
