On the last stop-in at Woodchuckers
Daniel picked up some chunks of
African blackwood we sell as
clarinet bells, some castello boxwood,
a bit of pink ivory, and our BF031
box hinge....and his scrap pile
supplied the birdseye maple

Called: A Tisket-A Tasket
Double lined top, scalloped with
his home made "pseudo rose engine lathe"

Fantastic use of materials!

Manzanita root burl

For those of you that thought blanked
 out cherry bowls is all Doug does....
Wrong ! Doug is equally at easy with
artistic creations as to the everyday
functional productions.

 

It is a pleasure to see turners convert our
supplies  into a little extra income as shown
 here by Berny's photos.

Burls are always sought after for
their unique grain structure....but
the wood richness of  our Australian
Goldfield  burrs sets them ahead
of the pack. Even with the bark
removed offers a special texture...
take a look at the "slipper" above.
Names such as malee, coolibah, red
 morrell, gray gum, eucalyptus etc.

Platter in hard maple, wedges are
lilac from Saskatchewan and accented
in black walnut.
Lacquered in high gloss which good
results are no doubt attributed to the
sanding preparation with our
Astra Dot sandpaper.

Hey Ken,....I know that inspiration
for a project can come from anywhere
but that hubcap in the background looks
mighty resemblin' !!
