Lauren and I will be demonstrating eccentric pendant turning at the next AAW Symposium (Tampa, in June).
This weekend we were preparing some text and photos for the session handouts, and thought a few of the photos might entertain some of the folks here.
Using an eccentric jig to vary the axis of the faceplate:
250494
Eccentric arcs cut into this piece of Corian have been filled with Inlace (with metallic dye) and returned to the lathe for final shaping:
250493
Combining wood with jasper and Chinese jade beading:
250496
Repurposing a photo ball head as a work holder, so Lauren can more easily do pyrography, piercing, inking, etc.
The ball head is affixed through a square dog hole in this 100 year old Christensen work bench. A microphone stand boom arm make a comfortable wrist rest:
250492
A simple piece of maple, with a raised bead around the "canvas" area where Lauren did some zentangling patterns. Finished with General WTF applied through an airbrush:
