Cape Hatteras Lighthouse

[Ronald Fox]

I'm having fun making lighthouses. This one is modeled after the Cape Hatteras lighthouse and made with Maple and Walnut with Yellowheart for the light. I shaved the rings from 3/4" down to 1/2" to help the speed up the spiral. It is 12" tall and coated with Wipe-on Poly. Now I just need to buy the guts to put inside of it, lol.

Pretty neat Ronald! I would be interstd in seeing a group shot of your work. See if there are any others I might recognize.

Very cool right there! Love lighthouses and climbed the Hatteras light several times. You did great work there!

Really a nice looking light house. Looks a little smaller that the Hatteras Lighthouse I stood on top of this summer.:D:rolleyes:

The good Lord gave you segmenters an extra dose of patience - for sure!!! Nice work!

[Dan Cannon]

Very cool! My son has been begging me to make him a lighthouse night light. This may give me the kick in the pants I needed to get it started. Beautiful work for sure!

You'll find that those custom made Fresnel lenses are quite expensive... :D

Cool project. I'm rather fond of lighthouses myself. I'd like to see what you would put inside one.

It's a pepper grinder. :) No lenses.
