I made this in November and the article came out in December but I was so busy teaching I forgot to post it here. Thought you lot might like this! I was asked to make a Cannon ball bowl which intriqued me somewhat! Apparently it is a tradition in Sweden to make a Mustard sauce to go with a...

I turned a blank for a mistral ball pen. It was like turning glass every time I touched it it was a nightmare. I could not get the cut blank to glue to the brass tube. I made the pen but you can rotate the body and the top of the pen by hand. I have used loads of glue but to no avail. I am...

A neighbour has just cut down a dead rowan tree, he is cutting me off some parts that are about 10in long and about 8in Dia. There is also a root ball as well. What would be the best way to get suitable sections for turning.

Following on from the fountain pen I made last week the recipient immediately ordered a roller ball out of the same wood.

One of the Push Button oilers ball is stuck in my lathe. I have pulled the brass housing out, but the ball is stuck about 25 mm in. I tried getting a magnetised rod to try and pull it out, didn't work.:rant::rant: Is there any way to get it out with out pulling the carriage to bits. The lathe...
