most of them still need some more coats of tung oil on them, but are finished otherwise :D
Any and all comments welcome as always :)

Leo, you obviously love walnut, as well. My favorite wood!! Great form on all of these - you must turn these out by the dozens.

Leo, as always your work is imaculate! Do you use a grain filler on your walnut pieces? SMOOTH...

Fine pieces all Leo. I really like your variety of rim treatments of late. Gee whizz....I'm retired and can't find the time to do that much turning. You are an active fellow...Bill...

Hi Steve, thanks :D, simple can be beautiful :)


Leo, as always your work is imaculate! Do you use a grain filler on your walnut pieces? SMOOTH...

Thank you John :D, no never use any grain filler John, tried it once or twice, years ago, didn't like the outcome, now its mostly just Polymerized tung oil from Lee Valley, I like it :)


Fine pieces all Leo. I really like your variety of rim treatments of late. Gee whizz....I'm retired and can't find the time to do that much turning. You are an active fellow...Bill...

Thank you Bill :D, as for time, same here Bill, being retired now for a dozen years I still haven't caught up yet, never enough hours in a day, and time seems to go faster and faster :(
