I had a play in my workshop today, and decided to try something a bit different from my usual turning activities. The photos are self explanatory, but the project took a bit of working out. My chucking sequences will be improved as I go along, but I had fun, and to me, that's what it's all about! The large Christmas tree is 180mm high and of Radiata Pine, the snowman is of unknown origin and 60mm tall, and the small Christmas tree is 25mm tall and of English Oak. Comments welcome, of course.

Hi doug,
Looking at the photos it is a bit confusing! (it don, t take much :C)
Do they all fit inside each other ?
Good job anyway, and a fun project....well done:2tsup:

Smiife, (and everyone else) sorry about that. Yes, the small Christmas tree fits inside the snowman, and then the snowman fits inside the large Christmas tree. Just a bit of fun leading up to Christmas. I reckon I must make about 50 or more large trees each year, so just wanted to try something a bit different this year. Doug
