This was a trip!

I could not resist trying the bias turned winged jars in the article by Tom Crabb in the Fall issue of Woodturning Design. Tom Crabb I am not, but at least I got it off the lathe in one piece!:D This one is maple, haven't measured but probably about 5" high. I may or may not ever do another one of these things again!:eek:

Carole,

That looks great! I just looked over Toms article and was thinking that would be an interesting project to try. You did it real justice!

[Andy Hoyt]

Yup. That is way cool.

I'd read the article; put the concept on my list of stuff to try; and everytime I look at the list I keep skipping it because I'm chicken.

Well ---- if Carole can do it; I can at least try. Gimme a couple days of pre-breathing and I'll be back.

LOL! Someone in another forum commented that "Carole will try anything!" That's usually true, but only after I have "pre-breathed" for a while!

What the...???? Hey...how you do dat? I didn't read the article Carole...Yer gonna hafta 'splain it to me. That is totally cool!!!:) :)

[Michael Stafford]

Wonderfully creative piece, Carole? As John said, "How you do dat?" Need a short tutorial for the periodically challenged among us....:p :D

[Carole Valentine]

You really need to read the article before you try this. I am sure back issues of Woodturning Design are available. Here is a VERY brief synopsis of how it is done. Sharp tools and proper safety gear (face and eye protection) are essential.

Don't mean to be a smartallic, but you call it a JAR. Does the top come off?

Even if it doesn't, It's awesome.

[Dick Parr]

Carole that is wonderful.:) So I take it you do like your DVR:D Great Job.

[Bob Noles]

Carole....

Now that is far too complex for me to ever imagine doing and shows just how steep the learning curve is going to be :)

Extremely nice job!

[Carole Valentine]

Bruce, yes the top is a nice little "pop" fit.

[Bruce Shiverdecker]

Ain't it WONDERFUL when a plan comes together? As I said before..........and adding "Truely" .......................awesome!

[Ernie Nyvall]

Awsome Carole, but I think I'd look at the whole article before trying one.:confused:
