    Brought this to the attention of Koonung turners.

    Pity I'll miss it though; heading bush about then.
    Cheers, Ern

    If you didn't go you missed a great day.

    It was good to see quite a few Forumites there and to watch the others demonstrating.

    Well done Charlie, good day all round.

    Just out of curiosity (and 'cos we felled a largish gum today ) what orientation was the blank you turned for the hat? Spindle or bowl?

    Bowl. For best effect the timber has to have the grain running through the centre of the headstock.

    Hope that makes sense.

    Thanks, .

    Now that you mention it, I remember your saying that the heart side should be facing towards the headstock.
