    Default The Light

    this shape have been gooing around some of the other froums, and i decided to try it out. Its my first winged turning ever. But from the fun i had making it it def. wont be the last.

    Wood is ordinary god danish white oak. (love the stuff) it chips a little to much for this kind of project but i think i nailed it none the less.


    sanded to 240 and DO. (this is prototype after all)

    they are great fun... i have already been spending time planing og expading on the design. Also i was actually asked by our teacher at the club if i could demo how to do thees!! so nobody tell her that im a complete beginner.... Hmm i will have to do a write up on the tek. in danish though...
    But it´s great for the self confidence to be asked to do a demo already ....

    Can't take my own damn advice. Was inspired by this thread and gave one of those a go today, exept a stock four corner one - yours looks much better, KillerB. Anyway, was sanding the bottom when the paper caught and my knuckles were given a right good rap, even broke one of the legs off

    Didn't let that deter me though and cut up another beam of unknown wood (lightish colour, looks like from construction/building, has a "spicy" smell when turning) and finished the second one without further injury.

    Good fun to do, but don't attempt unless your brain is 100% on the task...

    LOL. The candle thingy is currently getting drying with some blo/tung/poly and being the first coat looks very dull, so pics later. My fingers are no where near as impressive as that other fellows who got them all chewed up, just some missing skin and a small bruise under the tip of my thumbnail.

    Rasmus,
    Fine turning work, and a very good looking winged light
    Try a winged hollow form when you have the time.
