Some simple Turnings

[Keith Burns]

This group of turnings were completed with only two tools. Granted they are not works of art but they were not intended to be. They were done from small logs. The largest is Walnut and measures 5" dia. x 3-1/4" tall. The other 3 are Mesquite and the bowl measures 3" dia. x 1-1/4" tall. They are all finished with antique oil and buffed. What were the two tools ? The Ci2 Easy Rougher and the Ci3 Easy Finisher.

Nice little set Keith! Really like the forms on the NE goblets! The bowl looks really thin!

So, are you saying you like the tools?

[John Keeton]

Let's just say I am impressed!!! Nice looking turnings, and getting those done with the carbide tools is a real endorsement.

[David E Keller]

Nice job... Is there a reason that you limited yourself to the two easy tools? Nothing wrong with only using a few tools, but I wonder if there's a particular reason.

[Bernie Weishapl]

Those are great looking pieces Keith. I really like those middle two.

[Baxter Smith]

Those are neat little goblets!

[Frank Van Atta]

Nice looking pieces.

[Mike Willeson]

Beautiful set Keith. They look great together and have a nice rustic look.

[Dennis Puskar]

Good question. I do believe in the Easy Wood Tools. Will they replace all my other tools ? No. I just wanted to show what can be done with just a couple of these tools.

Nice turnings Keith. I wouldn't call them simple, though. :)
