Woodturning – Acorn Door Stop

In this video I turned a set of door stops out of one piece of Maple. I started with a 9″x 2″ x 2″ Maple blank. After finding center I mounted it in between centers on the lathe, and shaped a acorn on each end. This is a pretty easy turning project that only takes about 30 min.
