Bowled Over

25/10/2019

Not posted any thing on here for ages as have not really had time for much turning since the move but I have now found an outlet for some of my work.
Today I delivered a selection of bowls, boxes and pens to Samantha’s craft cafe in Sutton on Sea where as well as my turnings they have a great selection of handmade items that will make great gifts.
They also do a good selection of food and drinks.

First attempt at turning Pau Rosa.
A beautiful finish but a swine to turn, had to keep resharpening my gouges every 5 minutes.
Still am very happy with the results.

Not posted on here for ages but after relocating to Lincolnshire recently and not having a workshop for a few months, all being well will have a larger shed from tomorrow so will be able to get the lathes set up and get back to turning over the next few weeks.

I wish it would warm up a bit. It's way too cold to work in the shed at the moment.
