This is the first project from the haul of Small Splated Maple pieces I picked up from Member Rod a few weeks ago. I have lots of small blanks left 100+ so if anybody wants to swap a few pieces for something they have or buy a couple for a $1 each, let me know.

Thanks for looking.

David,

What size are your blanks? If they are at least 4 inches inches or so on a side I could use a few.

OBTW. Beautiful work on the box.

Thanks,
Ray

Sorry, David. That's a bit too small. But it makes your work more impressive. That must be some small turning tool you are using.

Not particularly; 3/4 roughing, 3/4 skew, 3/8 bowl, 3/8 spindle, 3/4 parting - just noticed a pattern.....
