Busy day

Lathes aren't neccesarily only for making bowls today. I turned some handles for some hand stamps that Helene is using for her pottery. Some birch branches that I had did the trick. Other than that, I turned a couple of fir bowls and did some finishing of some previous work. Todays lesson learned ; Don't bother working with wood that has checks (cracks) in it. Its a waste of time  as one bowl exploded on the lathe!

Time to find some good wood.
