Wanted to do some of these for yonks and never seemed to actually do it. Have a craft fair next Saturday so thought they'd break up the pens and bowls.

Maple, Cherry 5 inch dia x 2 inch high, all friction polished. I will be printing idiot sheets at work to give out if they sell :ciggrin:

The flying saucer is maple as well again 5 x 2

Purpleheart, this has got more purple as the day went on, weird. Sorry blurred pic.

All look well turned I like the flying saucer one the best. This reminds me that I have candle sticks and tea light to make along with many other things.

Very nice I like the shapes, it's given me some ideas. My wife keeps telling me I need to make them in pairs to make them more saleable, do you think shes right?:nooidea:

Funny, SWMBO said exactly the same thing just after I'd used the other maple blank for something else :funny:

Don't know about you but I'm always assured / reminded / told just how often she is right and I'm wrong, so maybe we should be making them in pairs.

:funny:
