A friend of my wife finally convinced her husband to cut down an aged and diseased pear tree in their back yard. As usual my wife cleverly mentioned that I am a turner and could help dispose of the offending tree. There was still some good wood in the tree, so I’m working on “form” again, practicing to make four small vases (not shown) for the woman’s four adult daughters who used to play in the tree as children. Also need more practice before starting on a piece of Vicki Jordan’s maple tree. Still missing the mark. “Artistic eyeball” needs further calibration.
Both about 6” tall, no finish yet. C. & C. welcome.
