Thank you all. Yes still have all my fingers just remember to keep them behind the tool rest and also remember where the tool is including the shaft.

No pictures of this one but this is another from the same tree to give an idea before colouring. This one is larger

The second lot of photos are of 1 piece just from different angles. I still have another 6 pieces of chestnut burr so will have to see about either photos or a video
