    Default Spindle practice

    G'Day All,

    Finally got a dust collector today so am now breathing a bit cleaner air. Have decided to go back to basics for revision and went and got a couple of bits of stick under the gum trees across the road and turned these ring holders, first one was that white ant eaten had to do another one.

    Cheers
    Bernie

    I rather like the first one; it has good shape and the wormy part adds character.
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    Neat looking ring holders, Bernie. I like the right one. Good job orienting the grain, and the wood is nice looking. You might surprise the lady by hollowing out the base to hold a small bell (as it looks a bit like a bell). Well done!
