Finally got back on the lathe to turn a project over a couple of days.
For this episode, I was thinking about the change of season into Autumn / Fall with a neat little pot pourri pot out of spalted beech which makes a great woodturning project for beginning turning.
It was coloured with Intrinsic Colour Dyes and finished with Hampshire Sheen. I also used a UV filtered danish oil and a few coats of my cellulose sanding sealer.
To turn it, I used a 3/8" spindle gouge and a 1/2" bowl gouge, both from the Excelsior range from Robert Sorby.
Overall, the finished item is a nice piece and will be a nice Christmas present for someone.
