Blame Raymond for this one.:p And yes, it does get just a bit exciting watching those corners go whizzing by: most of the sanding took place by hand, off the lathe...way way way off the lathe, thankyouverymuch.:eek:

6"x6"x3/4" poplar, looked a little plain on the lathe so I scraped out a flat spot on the inside and added the insert afterward (1/32" birch ply).

Ok, it's fixed now: dropped the connection when I submitted the thread first time.

That is real cool. Looks like your making great use of both the spinny thing and the electron burner.

I'm sure this will stir up some comment.........but I think adding laser work to turning produces a beautiful compliment! Lee I think you've found yourself a very special niche and you are filling it well. Great piece! Wood....form.....finish ....embelishment! Excelllent!
