Wow, I bet the spines were hard to carve :smiley:

You wouldn’t believe…

Beautiful!

For those wondering, this is the same principles and process as spindle turning except held in the chuck rather ran between centres. I’ll cover this in an induction to faceplate turning which I’ll do in the new year for those that have already been turning between centres.

Fancy giving me a pot making 101 after my induction?

Sure, you’ll need both inductions to do boring. Boring isn’t boring!
