ExperiMetal- A play with words describing my continued experiments with hand-turning metals on my wood lathe.
I've turned these 3 metals using a normal setup on my PM 3520 (no special tool rests or fixed cutters), and the EWT Mini Series Carbide Tools (Ci2m, Ci3m, and Ci4m).

Eccentric bowl, hackberry with aluminum legs. 4"h x 4.75"w The legs were turned/tapered on the lathe then bent. Both materials were sanded to 600 grit. Wood was finished with several tung oil coats. Legs were coated with carnauba wax then buffed. Comments are always welcome.
