That looks like a nice set of projects you have got there! I like the natural edge piece - attractive color and a nice thick bark rim. I also like the light weight look to the first piece in the chuck - clean and simple. I will be interested in seeing the completed carved piece as well. Are you going for a revealed brick castle look with that one?

Of course I am suspicious of your work - no wood shavings, dust, or tools lying around on the bench to prove that you actually spent time working on these projects....:D

Looks like you have been keeping busy! Nice forms! Really find your experimental Maple vase interesting! Looking forward to seeing it once completed!

Harry, very nice array of projects! I also think the maple vase is interesting. Looks like you are getting a nice effect of plaster coming off a brick wall - hope that is the intent!

Nice stuff Harry, especially the "bowl on a chuck". I set things aside on a chuck to dry in shavings for a while and do another often. Sometimes it works out successfully. :)

Great assortment of turnings. The maple vase looks neat(and time consuming!)
