    Default A Few Turnings

    Hello all,

    A few new pieces I've been working on.

    1: Camphor Laurel, approx 280 X 250mm. Oil finish.

    2 & 3: A little fluted hoop pine bowl, approx 200 X 150mm.

    4: a wormy bunya pine bowl, approx 200H X 150mm Wide.

    All oil finish. All comments welcome.

    See you all at Turnfest - those who are coming.


    Peter

    Default bowls

    Everything they said & more.Is there anyway in your truly amazing kitbag of skills that you could make a sleeve to take an icebucket Idea being that the spider web effect would be outside & waterproof alloy bucket could slide in/out. If you can Ill have at least 1.I can supply icebucket I would obviously be paying for finished product

    Beautiful work as always Peter Good to see some organic randomness coming in with the Camphor piece - like coral bending to the currents.

    Saw these in the flesh at turnfest and they are very nice,

    This is a time where the pictures do them justice, because if you are not standing with the right light in them they do not look translucent..

    Well done Peter.
