Nearly there with this “bowl” from a cherry tree rootball. Still some sanding, then probably a Danish oil finish. #woodturning

I’ve been working on this for the last few weeks. Nearly there now!

Some slightly unnerving sanding today!

Lots of hollowing done, more to go, then lots of sanding.

First stage completed.

Not sure how this one’s going to turn out! It’s a pretty dry chunk of cherry from the garden, which I cut down about three years ago. First step - turn a big tenon on the fat end I think…

It’ll soon be Christmas tree season once again!

I made this new nest box a couple of weeks ago. Within an hour of fixing it to a tree in my Anglesey garden it was occupied. 😀

Grafted a couple of new feet onto this old farm kitchen chair for a neighbour. The original leg ends had been reduced to dust by woodworm. I dismantled the legs and finished the repair on the lathe.
