Twice turned. Hays County pecan. Walnut oil as sanding sealer, Danish Oil finish. .40

Twice turned pecan bowl with ogee profile. ~9 1/2 x 3 finished size. The piece of wood was particularly hard to cut. Earned the "pecancrete" moniker. Very prone to tearout and raised grain fuzzies. Walnut oil used as cutting oil for finish cuts and as sanding sealer solved this problem instantly. Kiln dried, moisture content 7.5% Sanded to 320 followed by Acks sanding pastes. Danish Oil for final finish. Burnished to set finish. .40

7.5x2. Burnt with a torch, wire bushed, ebonized, embellishing wax, rattle can glaze. Turned from an ash crotch found in a firewood pile. There were lots of cracks and repairs needed after drying making this particular piece of wood a candidate for the rough treatment above. .40

Got addicted to making pens when I got my Shopsmith. Don't recall seeing many on here so was wondering if anybody else has had to deal with the pen turning addiction. This one was for a swap on another site. Had to be made with construction grade pine as the main ingredient. The dark wood is cocobolo. I think. Got over this obsession when I acquired my Ringmaster and headed off down that rabbit hole.

This plate has been hanging around for a while and started out as just a test of spiraling. There was a cut in the tenon and I did not think it was salvageable. Finish is lacquer. o last week I decided ti try again. and changed the spiral and added Gilding Waxes. It is small at 7 inches but was a fun piece.

I few weeks ago I asked if anyone might know what kind of wood this was. We kind of decided it was a myrtle/sycamore of some kind. I cut that log into 4 blanks. I've managed to lose one of them on a shelf somewhere in the shop. I rough-turned one of the three remaining blanks this morning. Any further ideas on the species seeing the grain and coloring? Whatever kind of wood it is, it was a pleasure to turn. Very easy to cut. Had a crisp clean spring woods smell to it. .40

7 1/2 x 3 pecan crotch. Has been drying for about 6 months. Areas were hard as a rock for the 2nd turning. Had to slow down and mind my P's and Q's to keep it from tearing out.

I made a cutting board that came apart. I took one of the smaller pieces and made a plate. Almost went too far. When I blew it off I could feel airr going through to the other side.

Working on a vase for my wife. I started with a piece of cherry 6” by 6” by 12” long. I think I will need to build a steady rest to hollow it.

I had four rough turned bowls drying in bags with chips. They have been there long enough I figured they had to be dry. Two of them were warped too bad to save and ended up in the burn pile. One is not finished yet. This one is done. It is ambrosia Maple.
