Hi folks, I may have posted this once before, but I thought some of the new folks to turning would like to see how small you can turn on a large lathe. I like turning small things, saves on the cost on material.:)

Looks great Bill!

You have given me an idea for my leftover antlers that are too small for pens.

Wow, nice job Bill. And I thought antler pens were tough.

What's a turner doing with a dime at all ??? :eek: Should have been spent already...:):)

You do some amazing mini's Bill.

One of my favorite threads here was the 'Itty Bitty Contest'. If you haven't gone through it, it's worth a look.

Wow, Bill, that's just amazing. I'd like to see photos of the tools/lathe setup you use to turn pieces that small.
