Projects:  Turned Bowls and Plates
On-Going

I started turning just for fun and to get an occasional break from house projects.  It is extremely enjoyable, relaxing, and a complete change from any other type of house renovation or woodworking activity that I've tried.  It's also a vortex that can suck you in and make it hard to get back to work.  These are a few of the various projects that I've been able to create that are worth posting for viewing.

Stacking Walnut Bowls.  This three-piece set came from a single length of 3" thick claro walnut.  My wife likes it so well, she uses it as the centerpiece on the dining room table.
