    Coloured Hollow Form

    Pulling out some of the wood from the unknown woodpile I decided to turn this hollow for with the intention of giving it a total coloured look but on turning it I went for a transparent coloured look and found some very interesting grain in it. 4 1/2" X 4" coloured with intrinsic water-based...

    Walnut Hollow form

    The first piece completed in 2020. Felt good to be able to start again in the shed after the festive break. I just needed something simple to start the year. Hollow form from spalted walnut. Quite punky in places but managed to stabilise. Decided to add a lid and final. I think it could be...

    Hollow form

    Not done a hollow form for quite a while so thought about time I did another. Made from field maple for the main body, American black walnut for the top and beech for the finial. Was going to colour the finial but liked it the way it looked contrasting against the lid. The bottom has a little...

    New penturner from Whitecourt,Alberta

    Thanks for accepting me into this forum. I have been turning for about 4 years now and only recently started turning pens. I've turned 2 to be exact! I found it relaxing!

    Sanding inside hollow forms

    Do you sand inside your hollow forms if so I thought that this may interest someone. You don't need to understand what he is saying as I think it speaks for itself

    A funny quote from my wife

    "In your never ending desire to purchase every turning tool known to mankind I see you found some new ones." Little does she know there are LOTS left to buy. Good thing I make enough money selling blanks to feed tool purchases.:ciggrin: I attended a program where Mike of Hunter Tools did a...

    Hollow forms or weed pots?

Both measure around 130mm high by 95mm around the middle. Designed to accept a plastic tube for water, though you can't see that very well...

My original idea was to make bowls and hollow forms but I seem to have got side-tracked into pens-which I am enjoying. I'm looking fwd to...
