It has been a while but here are a couple of
turnings from the last week.

On the left is a bowl complete with a grub hole
which I managed to keep intact,
In the centre a small paper clip bowl, and
On the right a fairly shallow lidded bowl.

All made of blackwood scraps.

Note: This was my first lidded bowl which
gradually diminished in size. Let's say the
lid eventually fitted ok.

Nice scraps Allan

Like them all the one on he left looks great with the grub hole

and the lidded bowl love the way the grain swirls opposite directions and ideal one to hide the peanut brittle in

what did you finish with ??

besides a bow

Allan,
Pretty good job for scraps. I like the lidded one it worked out fine in the end.
A golden rule in woodwork is to have the punters think that the finished result is meant to look the way it does. I tell people that I made the salt and pepper mills a bit different so they can tell them apart.
