Hi,

i am a new French Woodturner and that is the firs piece i post with comments.

My French is better than my English...be lenient...lol

I love doing all kinds of candle holders

out of a cube (90mmx90mm) of SPALTED BEECH and 3 eccentric feet ( 60 mm long) of "IF" and "Pécher", inspired by an article in the last WTurning.

See my gallery, i have post other turnings


All comments and criticisms are welcome

Very Interesting work

Kurger,
No need to apologize for yor English! I am sorry I can do no French. Welcome to the Forum.
As a simple turner of some 35 years it is very hard to mentally imagine how you do what you
so aptly show in your pictures. The math of what you do is amazing. Barbra Gill and Stoney Lamar
are two of my favorite excentric turners here in the states. Your efforts are appreciated.
Please keep posting your creations.
My best
Peter
 
thanks all,

hi, bill

the last is a combination of the first pic under and a piece of scrap plum wood...lol
