Some more practice stuff. One is a kinda goblet or something, I turned it after changing the belt on my drill press pully :) , the others are mallets & a pencil holder... Felt like i needed to post something as i have been here a while and no posts to date.

Now that's an interesting looking goblet. I like it. I need to do a wooden mallet myself.

Inspired by a set of Drill Press pulleys.... That's got to be a first!! Very cool. You're really going to town, aren't you?

Hi Mike
I like your wavy goblet. and mallets look comfotable to use.
I intend to make a mallet for furniture making. :)

Thanks Guys,
You are all very kind!
John, I didn't start out to make the pulley inspired on purpose but subconsciously
after the drill press...maybe :).

Takeshi, the mallets are made of soft wood so they dent easily but I don't really care about that and i will use them as they are very comfortable. I will make some later with better wood when i can get some, so the practice was good for the future..

Ernie, the mallets are great fun to make!

Thanks Jerry, i appreciate your thoughts
