Potpourri Bowl

Found out this afternoon that I needed a last minute gift for tomorrow. Had the top from a little manic buying a couple months ago at Craft Supplies. Used CA
on the outside mainly because I thought wax might get in the way of the dried flower smells. Thanks Carl for all the great vids.

Customer pens

These are the customer pens I have done so far for the holidays. Usually this time of year is when I get some business. Beats giving away free ones which I promised myself to quit doing,lol. Pens are such a personal item that brings me even more joy turning them.

The Giant Hourglass

I had a local glass company make the glass for me. The glass is 15″ tall and contains tiny glass beads rather than sand. The effect is like water cascading between the vials.
The ends are burr elm, and the rest is beech – all from sustainable sources.
Finish is clear lacquer, rather than my usual home cooked natural finishes, but this is made to be handled so I wanted something hard wearing. Swivels are 6mm threaded rod with one thistle knob epoxied, and the other having a captive nut epoxied.
Quite a bit of copy turning involved, but I think I pulled it off not too badly.
