    Deer Antler Lidded Box

    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.

    What's a turner doing with a dime at all ??? 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.
    That's not a light at the end of the tunnel; It's a naked singularity.
