Well, just so you all know that I am using my mini occasionally I thought I would post a pic of a quick project I did. I got quite amused by these from some pics on the WC turning board while the creek was down and had to try it.
I am still working on shape and tool controll but these are great to practice with and even if they look crummy my kids love to play with them. Best of all you can just chuck up anything between centers centered on the pith and have at it.
The two larger ones are from a maple branch I scavanged and the small one is cedar from a post in my yard. The cedar was actually from another project I was working on that I goobered and was goin to dispose of the wood. I thought hmmm I bet I could make a wee baby shroom from that :D
Lots of fun and I know that these are not great but I thought I would share. Since I know they are bad, feel free to provide real honest constructive criticism on them. I have narrow shoulders but they hold a lot :)
