    Default Imperfecta Gracious

    To many excuses to list all valid I assure you, but at last they are done.

    Thanks goes to Bowl Basher for a beautiful piece of Camphor he gave me earlier this year of which I produced the bowl and platter from one piece. There was no way I was going to waste the colour or size of this bit of wood. The crack on the platter never once looked like it was going to give way even tho I epoxied it and used gaffer tape around the outer edge using Cole jaws to turn it.

    The low vase also Camphor was from some I had collected when I first got into turning so full of imperfections and colour.

    The Jarrah square bowl a piece which was out of the collective buy from Marginenta (Perth Wood School). I just had an idea and went with it, little did I know Peter Ozartizan had a similar idea with slight differences. Sadly on my last cut on the underside 3 legs went AWOL . Glued back together

    The Trivet plain simple NSW Rosewood from Mal's boutique Timbers

    The lidded finial Box QLD Beech thanks to Noel Outbacker with Western Red Cedar boards which were destined for firewood and unknown wood for the finial. OT via Rose Engine in memory of Peter Harding.

    All finished with Timberlac

    It appears you have more time than me with all that
    effort in the shed.

    May have to borrow some turnings off you to fill the
    shelves in my cabinet.

    Thanks Geoff

    I can smell that Huon from here Geoff now what treatment would that be??? You need power to run the Triton but you can still use hand saws planes etc to make the box.

    Oh yes the bench had lots to do with this lot i had more places to put stuff ATM its become my pen turning corner.


    Christos thanks
