    Default Which Way???

    well its not wood, but its also not watch parts

    Armor Plates, Red Wire and PET sleeve, cast in resin

    this is my second attempt at this blank design, the first didn't make the lathe, the 2nd well its not perfect but well worth the trouble to see how it would look completed

    i am not sure which way i prefer the ends... let me know what you all think

    thanks for looking

    C&C welcome

    If it was me and only by looks alone I would go via the first set of photos.

    To be honest I don't think either combo really hits the spot, but the second one looks the better of the two in my eyes.

    Thumbs up

    I like the looks of the 2nd one.
    The first one makes it look too top heavy.
    Both nicely done.
