Gooday all.
Finished this this afternoon. I sort of lost heart halfway through because it has a huge split right across it and threatened to fall in half.
Timber is Blackwood finished in Lacquer.

:D Talk about leaving it till the last minute.:rolleyes:
Bit of miniature (for :D) multi center turning.:cool:
Looks good from here.:2tsup::2tsup:
So how did we fix the split:?
Is this spindle turning??:?:?:?:?
Looks OK though:2tsup::2tsup:
Cheers
I like it, looks kinda like an asian garden temple :)
Glad to see you come and play :D
The colours are so different between the pics :think: Are there two boxes?
Cheers,
Dave
hmmmmmm....must'a used your "half~round" lathe for the box:;:D
Looks good :2tsup:
Thanks Eliza. That was the influence behind it. The bottom was going to be the same but it kept cracking around the edges. I got cheesed off and just rounded it over.
No, only one. The first pic is in full light, the other is partly in shadow.
Nah, my hands just move quick.:whistling2: Thanks Ed.
Did you do it on your long bed lathe? :)
That's what might have caused the cracks?
