Woodworking

These bowls were turned on the lathe. The white bowl is soapstone. The tall one is a weedpot turned from cherry burl (the knobby growths on the sides of trees) and the bowl on the right is turned from black locust.

This box is made from scrap wood.  I found the figured walnut used for the lid in a scrap bin at the woodshop on the local Navy base.  The bottom is an unknown wood reclaimed from a drawer while the sides is rosewood from a scrap bin at a lumber store.  It sold for $20.00!

This tiny jar is turned from redwood reclaimed from an old picnic table.  It is only about 1.5" in dia.

These little fetish bears are made from (front to back) Coral , Rosewood, and Maple.  The largest is about 1" long
