    I'll try not to. The worst of it is, the others are all cut'n'glued, ready for their 5 mins of glory on the lathe. :mad:

    What's the betting I'll start cutting this lot up and, as soon as I reach the "point of no return," move a piece of wood and find my truants?

    we've all been a bit slack this month.
    I'd have to 'fess to being 'behind the 8 ball' at the moment. End of the year at work has certainly taken a toll on my time (and my health, no, not self inflicted!!!) Actually currently have the flu and ended up in emergency on Saturday night getting breathing assistance (asthma and flu don't mix). But, been out of bed ALL day today!!! First since about last Thursday!

    However, that said, I do have a disgraceful thing AKA as a pen ready to put together - that was until I saw Neil's, and now I even think the scrap heap is too good! HWMBO recons it's OK, I don't.

    All is not lost, work is now over - enough of the 'all the holidays teachers get already' - back to serious turning to catch up.

    Sorry, but I will catch up!

    Default Here they are..

    After the disastrous first idea - enlogated triangles to represent sun rays et al - obviously the thought synapses were not firing correctly and it was less than ideal!! Paduak and bull oak rays in Elm (I believe).

    Take two - the colours of sunset with suns - a yellow mulberry and a bulloak cut with a snug plug cutter so they don't go all the way through. Red cedar and Iroko.

    Love the way both of the main woods shimmer!
