Was sure it was gonna be one of those 3 legged dairy stools - didn't expect a solid timber replica of an air-bag
has obviously quelled any reservations you might have had about whoppin' great lumps of hardwood spinning at undie-filling speeds Top job TL

I was worried about what I was going to find.

If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

Hands and wrists are OK! Better than pottery would you believe. (You're not suggesting it looks liek a hamburger? ) Some verve ?
Yeah! My perspective has gone right out the wondow. Other people at Knox Woodworkers Say "look at my big bowl" And I ask "where is it? ".
Thanks! That was the effect I was after.anne-maria.

Seriously, I can't explain it...no intention to offend. As close as I can get at the moment is it's like knowing when a singer is singing with feeling and I've no doubt you have a better voice than me. I'm probably using the word verve a bit differently than its definition, I sort of just like the way it sounds.

Well done TL. That's gunna hurt if you stub your toe on it in the dark.
To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional
Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
What could possibly go wrong.

I sort of agree with Springwater and no intention to offend either. My 'verve' would be some texture to the marshmallow such a script like in these prayer wheels:
File:Swayambhunath prayer wheels.jpg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Or a Celtic carving wrap around... etc etc. I know that's a lot of extra work, but it could also be a single wavy slot around one of the pillows with a dot in each trough (sort of Australian Aboriginal ish) Maybe some of these patterns for eg.:

Nice work, TL!
Suggestions for the big box.... hollow it from the bottom, insert a false bottom, cut off the top "pillow", and hollow it for the lid. It'd sure make it lighter... that is, 'if' it's too heavy for ya.
Still, just like it is, it'd be nice to have in the living area to just roll around where you want it.
I like it.

That would've been a challenging piece TL. Well done.
When you scale up the existing muscle memory doesn't work, so there has to be a lot of thought and checking.
I think of every new shape/new scale piece as a prototype.Cheers, Ern

Serious bit of spindle turning there TL.
I'm not sure what it is with women woodworkers and the very solid wooden stools they make.... one of the members of the Japanese Hand Tools forum has been doing her own versions, here.
.....Stay sharp and stay safe!
