    Red face Wormy Persimmon on a JrGent 1 rollerball

    Had drilled this blank and square it off the other day, finished it up just before eating last night....and then got 'side-tracked' and forgot to photo it(Go figure, like getting side-tracked isn't a normal thing for me)


    Anyway, the timber is some more of the wormy presimmon I had sent to Eugene way back when, and this piece has his Red Tide mix in the worm trails.






    It was actually fun to do some turning after work, I may have to do this a little more often!
    Thanks for looking, C&C always welcome!

    I must admit....
    These type blanks are sort of like turning any acrylic blank, the finish is already there and after turning to size all that is really needed is sanding thru 1500grit and polishing with PlastixPolish. So the shine was already in it, and I had a pretty easy time getting it to show.




    Thanks for the kind words everyone, sometimes I forget to reply to them but I do see them.
