This was one of my pieces in the National Wood turning Exhibition recently. Photoes hurriedly taken before racing off to deliver them. Looking at them now I think I will have to get some more taken Maybe in focus this time. :doh: Anyway, .......
Spalted figured Blackwood, Holly and Queen ebony. Sanded to some stupidly fine grit and finished with Rustins Danish oil and traditional wax. This received a first place in the lidded box section. Novice of course. :cool:
The other piece was a platter. No pics of that at the moment. (That also received a first place in the platter section, and Second overall in the Novice section. :B Am I allowed to skite? ) ( Too late. :U ) I didn't get to skite much at the exhibition cos I missed the presentation. Was fiddling about in the shed practicing chasing threads so I didn't forget wheat we learned from Jim. Looked up thinking I'd better leave soon and it was 4 30. Should have been there already. :doh:
