Plywood vessel

[sascha gast]

just for fun I glued up some scrap birch ply and turned a little vessel, painful to turn, dust everywhere, but still was a fund experience.
about 10 coats of laquer, so I didn't bother with avoiding reflections

Sascha I did the same thing. Had a lot of fun and just did it to say I did. Problem is can't see yours so must not have happened.:rolleyes:;):cool:

[Jim Becker]

LOL! Musta been that new clear plywood stuff...

(I saved a bunch of micro-lam from our addition for "interesting" turning projects in the future...)

Right click on the red x and choose properties, then copy the url... and paste into a new window..

File is too large to upload here and I don't have time to do it for him right now :)

Cheers, Don.

Don
I don't see a red x in saschas post and I get a 403 Forbidden access message with your link.

[Don Kondra]

LOL.... don't you love this compfuser stuff :)

I get the picture from the first red x url and the forbidden on the second red x which I didn't bother posting cuz I got the forbidden message.

Cheers, Don.

[Bruce Page]

I'm seeing them, no problem.

[Don Kondra]

So I deleted my browsing history and now I also get the forbidden from my link:(

[Don Kondra]

Anyway, back on topic.

Sascha, having made it would you do it again?

My experience with turning plywood is limited to making jigs, chucks, etc and it isn't the most "fun" wood to turn :)

I'm also wondering what your thoughts were on the opening?

Did you consider making it fair or defining the edge more ie. a definite ring around the opening?

Cheers, Don
