Ray , what do you think ??
Very few others are adding to this OT thread area which is disappointing but somewhat understandable. Is it a lack of interest or the lack of OT equipment available to those who may have an interest ??
I have more I could keep putting up especially for the purpose of helping others but not sure if there is sufficient interest. What do you think??

Cheers
Edwards :)

Bronte for me knowing what you have done and can do its like learning from a master.
Like I do when around David Liard or Tom or a few of the others at OTGA. I am a kid with a new toy.:D I say more please.:2tsup:

I don't have the gear, still in the process line, space these days is a premium many have this problem. I look at Charles Ellis system an old drill press, the new style Rambling Rose Engine light weight. The new CNC machines breaking new ground.

I know there are quick and easy attachments people can make simply to use on their lathes to decorate with. The net has some very interesting sites full of ideas.

Easiest way to show you is I have taken a screen shot of the Ornamental Turning section look at the right hand column and the views your post of the boxes 150, Pizza 69 etc See the attachment below.

Although there isn't many commenting they are watching. :U :2tsup::2tsup:
Why :whatonearth: lets hope its sparking some interest :U

I have to add Bronte its not just the production of OT work but designing building new tools and ideas on how to. It is what attracted me more to the Ornamental Turners Group.

Don't stop posting OT stuff. I am an OTI member but don't have an OT lathe yet. :( I did buy a metal lathe and a milling machine so that I could make an OT/rose engine lathe but there always seem to be something else that needs to be done first. :C When I have something to show I will happily post it. :)

Pete with what you have already there is nothing stopping you doing OT work now take a look at Old Bikers/Marks (http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/remark/pages/hobbies/ornamental/ornamental.html) set up and how he got started
