A Little Somethimg for Christmas
Posted: 20 Dec 2017, 20:22
I have a subscription to Woodturning magazine and this is based on a two part project that Colwin Way did.
All of the timber came from things I have been given as fire wood, but it was much too good for that.
I used my old Wadkin, Multico and Perform, saw, planer and thicknesser to get down to the sizes you see me working on.
First there are going to be Tee light holders so holes drilled to take the nice brassed inserts.
I used a cheap Chinese round over cutter in my Proxxon it the router attachment to ease the edges of the holes.
Each hole is then cut from the length of stock ready for turning.
I use a spacer in the form of a disc of hard board to get the work out from the jaws.
Ready for turning.
Turned and a hole drilled for it to sit on a dowel peg.
