I would like some feed back on some of my work I am only self taught over many years and not all at once as I travel a lot.<o></o>
<o></o>
My tools I made these with are Lathe Tekna Tool swivel head, some home made jigs for the lathe and other small jobs.... I have all so done time in the art of French polishing as I think its a good way to preserve timber.<o></o>
<o></o>
First off here is my old set up Tekna Tool lathe me working at a bowl<o></o>
Next is close up of my free turn bowl from a heavy gum burl, 3rd one is a side view of the bowl, Next is my Dove tail box its made of - WA Jarra,NSW Gum,Walnut - I did most by hand and I cut the Pins by hand( As you can see..lol ) and the tails by router this was just a test to see how strong I could make dove tails and well many years on its still as rock solid as it was the day I did it – There we go we will see what you guys and girls think.. J<o></o>

Very nice work NGX.
Cheers

Good day NGX

I am very sorry for what I said to you yesterday and apologize for being rude to you.

What made me to think so was your URL with the pictures that you are selling and I did not see there any picture of woodworking.

Please accept my apology, and welcome to the forum.

Your work is very beautiful and I look foreword to see more pictures of your beautiful works.

Regards
niki

OK, I've goofed

Sorry Noel, I obviously got this one wrong and maybe I'll be a little more careful before firing off the red gun.

Perhaps I'm a bit sensitive on it since the episode with my mate Ovenboy a short while ago. No need to explain it but others will know where I'm coming from.

The last thing I want to do is to discourage a new member from staying aboard. I'm just one of the many on here so please don't take it personally.
I'll fire off a greeny to reverse the red one for you.
Again my apologies to you.

Or self moderating by the members.

I love the shape of your Box.
