I made this box for the monthly challenge on WoodTurningZoom, the theme was “something for someone else so an item made to make someone smile it must be made for someone and given to them as a gift”. I made this box for Ruth Bray, the wife of a friend, I gave a similar box to Steve Kearvell for...

I have just modified my portable demonstration Rose Engine lathe by installing a new cross-slide on it. I got the cross-slide from Arthur Kingdon, the President of the Society of Ornamental Turners as he no longer needed it. It needed a new lead screw which I got from Arc Euro Trade at a very...

4"x3"

I made this bowl on my MDF Rose Engine out of sapele. It is about 4" across, and was an experiment to see how much I could alter the shape of the bowl simply by cutting the rim.
