This is one of the blanks I got before Xmas which weren't that great, so I thought I'd use them for practice pieces.

This was playing with undercutting a bit. It doesn't show up on the pics :nooidea:

Friction polish finish.

I'm now getting repetitive strain injury typing well done Phil, but I mean it, you're making a lovely job of some distinct turnings Phil.

Very nice, calling it practice is really doing it an injustice. Since you mentioned it I can see the under cut. I think you use the multi tip too from sorby, and I find it too easy to start making an undercut when not intended! It's seems a good tool mind.

Whilst the workmanship, finish & timber are all to my liking Phill, the shape of this one does nothing for me, sorry.
