Realized I hadn't messed one of these up so got to work.
Here's the result - out of ash, about 5" tall, 2 3/4 wide, finished with wax. I intentionally went for the fat stemmed, too wide base, upside down goblet look....really....honest.....:eek:
And burned a few lines in `cause I could:D

And I know this is mainly flatwork, but look at the very top........stands almost 30" tall. A birdie feeder.... still needs primer/paint.

Hey Barry, nice work on both accounts. Little vases like that are fun. That is a great scrolled/turned bird feeder. Nice job!

Looks great Barry, the birdfeed sure looks nice!
Would not last a week here, the crows would have a party in it, and bad words would be spoken the next day by me, when I would have to pick up the pieces....
Will you paint the bird feeder?
I guess you get some nice upscale birds in Alaska :D
The birds in Tokyo just like the 1.5L coke bottle with holes cut in it :rolleyes:
Nice work my friend!

Barry, you have a nifty looking vase there. As soon as you said goblet, though, my mind immediately went "That's not a goblet, that's a Pilsner!".
I really like the birdhouse, too. I'm considering a scroll saw in the new shop as one of the "fun" addenda, but want to make sure I have all the spinny stuff I need before I get any more "toys".

Great work Barry! Did you burn the lines with wire or wood?
On the birdfeeder...Just gorgeous. So...In Alaska, I'm guessing that you just bonk a salmon, throw it in the birdfeeder and wait for the eagles to arrive? :D

ROTFLMAS John:p:p Those eagles eat better than we do.
Barry nice weed pot and I like the feeder as well. Nice topper from the lathe.

Pilsner - I like it! Beats Pilsbury.......
And John - I burned the lines with an eagle feather, errr guitar string, bonkers aren't just for salmon;)
