inside out turnings

Fed Holder had an article on them a long time ago. They are rather simple to do. Four square pieces of wood. Must be square and equal in size. glue the ends with ca about 1/4" no more. Turn what will be the inside shape. Mark the ends so you can keep them aligned. Cut off or split the glued ends. Turn each piece 180 degrees. Glue the surfaces in total back again. Then put back on lathe and turn to final shape. There is an on line pictured source but I can't locate the url just yet...Darryl
 
Send an e-mail to my home and I can send what info I have. johnclucas@charter.net Unfortunately I have collected a lot of info that I only have as hard copies but I do have some handouts that I have put together that should give you some idea of what i do.
I will be doing a demo in Athens Ga at the end of April on Inside out turning.
