I have been doing a lot of practice turning pieces on my new lathe. Here are 3 little end-grain bowls I made out of some douglas fir.
I made this small jewelry box out of the same wood.
I also made this bowl out of poplar. It's not end-grain, but I'm not sure what the terminology for this type of bowl is. Maybe you would call it a side-grain bowl?
I made a few tool holders for the end of my lathe stand.
I turned these two little coat-hook type knobs to hang various things on the lathe stand.
I have a long ways to go on improving my lathe skills, but I'm enjoying practicing. Up next I am going to be building a set of cabinets, and I'll be doing some articles on that process.
