A week of rough turning

Just thought I’d post some photos of the bowl blanks I’ve been turning, since my chain sawing session two weeks ago. Most of them have natural edges and there’s a couple of really big ones too.

Here’s them all piled up in the workshop – the shavings lying on the ground represent only two bags worth out of the twenty five I produced! The large blank on the right hand side could be one of my largest yet…

Quite a few of the fruit bowls have some lovely bark inclusions visible too.  These inclusions almost separate them into sections, so I do hope they stay in one piece…

Not all of my time is spent on the lathe – sweeping up all these shavings takes a while...

I should also be selling firewood too!
