    Default spindle practice for Christmas

    G'Day All

    Usual get ready for Christmas time, so a good time to practice spindle work, pyrography and make one set of the twin grandkids a present each. Enjoyed doing them but as you can see not much good at woodworking, but as you can see still too little to give much cheek. Made out of plywood and crapiata.

    Cheers
    Bernie

    Only reposted thread to show Toni what can be done with a marriage of pyrography and wood turning, so as to urge here to keep at it. But thanks for kind comments and I spread it out over two days Tiger.

    Cheers

    Bit harsh on yourself Bernie. They look great and the kids will love them, but they'll probably enhance the designs with liberal and random applications of felt tip pen.
