Had this bit of old railway sleeper knocking about for months, a mate gave it me & I was going to cut it up for pen blanks as it had so many splits in it.
Whilst I was turning I thought I`d take a couple of photos as I know Phill had asked about hot glue for mounting.
This is me ready to start turning with a bead of glue all the way round the edge of the blank & the tailstock bought up to start with just to be on the safe side.
The base board is just a piece of 26mm MDF screwed to a face plate.
tailstock removed & the bowl turned.
