  1. Thanks Marg, I fixed it! Everybody, thank you for your kind words.
  2. A baby shower gift.
  3. thank you
  4. Made second one - this time with the grain going in the other direction. No breakage - but I also was even more careful than the 1st time around.
  5. Finished with walnut oil. Tree of Life © by Jon Rigsby III as fretwork. Made from Tigerwood. The most expensive wood I ever bought. 16 x 16"
  6. Very! I broke 3 already...
  7. Thank you, Dan. It is not oiled yet.
  8. Pattern © by Jon Rigsby III . Made from Tigerwood. (not Tiger Wood ;-))
  9. I could be wrong, but I thought they were designed by Danny van Wattingen. Either way, they are very cute!
  10. This is very beautiful. Is it your own pattern? I love it!
  11. Roly, they are about 15 cm.
  12. I am not quite sure if my tools were not sharp enough but I tried to cut a bead into the larger bowl and I could not make an impact. Or is Mahogany simply too hard to even try?
  13. As a German friend said, turning on the lathe wastes so much wood, that you could make so much more out of. So I scrolled these two thingies yesterday and finished them on the lathe. Now being a total turning novice, they are not quite as great as I would have liked. But I am quite happy with the outcome. The woods are hickory, cherry and mahogany.
  14. Thank you for your kind words, as always, friends. Happy new year to all!
  15. Ralph, I actually go to TJMAXX and scour their cutting boards.
  16. Yep, Jeff - three of them. And thanks for your encouraging words!
  17. Made from Italian Olive wood. I made two. Pictures show both sides of them.
  18. aromatic cedar btw.
  19. My daughter asked for a holder - so I re-did last year's ampersand.
  20. I am sure the attempt to stay on topic is always treasured. But if we accidentally drift off into a nice conversation, nobody really seems to mind. And if anybody does mind, I am sure they will respectfully indicate that and everybody can move on!
  21. This is a very courteous forum. I have zero complaints. I don't believe you need to worry!
  22. Beautiful. Well done.
  23. Had only very little time to saw. But here you are.
  24. My best friend’s mother passed away recently so I combined their first names in the piece to honor their special relationship. Walnut and alder.
