I have only been turning for about 8 months now. Here is what I have to show for it.

Very nice Christmas gifts! Well done, Sir!

What did you use for a finish?

Thank you very much. I used 10 or so coats of CA glue, then wet polished to 12000 grit. The recipients were very happy.

Nice job! I've never seen an ornament like that. I need to show that to my buddy Jake who makes more ornaments than anyone I know! Where did you find the metal parts?

Nice work, really like the tree ornament. Is that spalted maple on that one?
