    Default Tealight zigzag

    To all woodworkers.

    Theese three tealights are the last turnings I got done before the christmas sale i Bergen. I started monday and finished them today, thursday evening at 8.00 pm.

    The zigzags are made from Purpleheart, Cedar and Jatoba, The light wood are unknown for me, only I know the wood have being pallets for Husquarna Riders built in the USA.

    Measurements: Diameter 110 mm, hight 60 mm, 85 segments, total production time for all three tealights 11 hours 15 minutes.
    Sanded to 320 grit and finished with boiled linseed oil.

    Thanks for looking and comments.

    This is a test to see if anyone is dumb enough to comment on the misalignments, right?

    Front one was obviously a practice run.:rolleyes

    Well done Oistein, despite the above response to our friend from a foreign place.

    Segmenting is obviously time consuming and I imagine it can be very frustrating.

    Quite right. I over reacted, and I apologize. Segmenting is indeed challenging and there are about four things to try to stay focused on at the same time, so it's easy to have a little slip up.

    If they didn't have misalignments, how could you tell them apart?

    On blowup, they're almost full size images! Very meticulous, Oistein. Bravo!

    Cheers,
    Joe
