1- Hollow Vase, routed flutes made from London Plane - 230mm x 140mm
2 - Boxes, Rose Gum and Claret Ash around - 140mm x 90mm
3 - Bowl, Iron-bark - 300mm x 140mm
4 - HF, on stand , made from Claret Ash with routed flutes and ebonised with India Ink - 180mm x 150mm
5 - Vase, Claret Ash, turned on two centres, heavily scorched and wire brushed, finished with BLO - 230mm x 190mm

Thanks gents, you're very kind.
Sawdust Maker - Nick, here's another pic of the boxes with the lids off.
I've also included a pic of a goblet I made.

Beautiful work Fredo
I especially like the first hollow vase It is the darkest London Plain I've seen though, looks like myrtle, have you stained it?Neil____________________________________________Every day presents an opportunity to learn something new

Again gentlemen many thanks for the kind remarks.
Dai sensei - Neil, the wood is definitely London Plane, and it is not stained - the finish is Feast Watson Scandinavian oil, one that I have used for ten years or so, and it doesn't seem to darken the wood any more than other finishes I have used.
I have quite a lot of London Plane from the same tree and have made four or five pieces from it and it all seems to be a similar colour (excellent wood to turn and finishes a treat).
Again many thanks,
