beech

Not being able to get much turning done due to other projects and things I decided to get into the workshop for a good days turning for a quick break from them other buts. Managed to produce two Ash bowls one with some nice ripple and an old knothole as well as a spalted Beech bowl. First the...

This kit had been knocking about the workshop for some time so I thought I had better do something with it. Stabilised Spalted Beech (from the local forest).

I usually put the more exotic burr's on my Mistrals, but this is Diagonal cut Spalted Beech with loads of Spalting. I think it looks stunning, Rhodium with Black Ti accents. Cheers Brad

Not sure if this hybrid works

My third attempt at segmentation. This is spalted beech and guitar pickboard I don't know yet how to orientate my pictures or delete ones that I don't want, but seeing that the other picture has appeared does anyone know the wood. I think that it may be alder as it came from logs that I cut a...

More firewood! Found this Berberis in the burning pile last week. 5" x 2" approx. Then found this piece of Beech today. 6" x 3" approx

A kit I forgot I had. Not the best kit quality wise, but I do like the design. Dressed in spalted beech, finished in melamine. Kind regards Craig

I finally managed to get a pen turned. I bought this kit Months ago to make a pen for myself. I had one bit of spalted beech left that looked like it would turn well. Very impressed with the kit. I wasn't sure a high gloss finish would show the wood at it's best so I opted for 3 thin coats...

Not glued up and detail to be done, but that's the wood bit finished. A novelty box in steamed Beech ( an old table leg) 2 1/4" x 4 1/2" high.

Having taken advice from this forum and after my lesson with Mr mooney, I have spent the last few weeks, practising the art of sharpening a tool properly!!! I put some wood between centres and turned the RPM's up to 3100 (nearly twice the speed I was turning at). The result was some what...

Ebony & Beech Omega rollerball. Regards Pat

Gunmetal Leveche in Spalted Beech. I chose the spalted beech as I think it goes well with the gunmetal. Cheers Brad

After watching carving demos at Northumbrian Woodturners in April I decided to give carving a try. Don't hold your breath for any pictures of my work, I need a lot of practice before I produce anything worth posting. But rather than pay anything from £30 to £60 for a plain looking but good...

Emperor Wedding pen and white acrylic with custom made spalted beech wood box.

Only had time to get a couple done this weekend. Firstly a beech & unknown dark wood slimline & a beech & bubinga slimline. Regards Pat

The transport mechanism got stuck, just could not save it. Drilled out the brass tube with a 6mm drill. Not sure if a another mechanism will fit or not. All day working on that body and I was quet pleased with it. It was a Beech and Iroko laminate out of the scrap box. Still, never mind; try...
