Stop It

[Dalboy]

OK been back in the workshop wanted to turn a little of the burr I cut up so took one of the 2"square pieces and turned this wine stopper from the end of it. I also tried to pick the end with some small holes in it to try some of the metal powder.
I am pleased with the texture of the powder as it filled even the smalles of holes and also the effect it gives, in this case I used the copper. I also had the chance to try Chestnuts gloss spray and this I found easy to apply and with thin coats left a nice finish.
This is no good for the wine drinkers on here as the bottle would not last that long for the stopper to be used.
