Not the best images I admit, but most items have been given away so I can’t re-take the pictures. Nevertheless, they demonstrate some more gifts that can be made from smallish bits of wood. The art-deco style clock is made up from strips of cherry and ash. The ‘rotten’ pear is made from pear wood.

Thanks, Jocks, for your interest and comments. MrTrim – Carving is something I have yet to try & fruit flies might be just a little tricky <grin>
Jockmike2 Yes all lathe work; well, pics 1 and 2 anyhow! Here’s another fruit bowl. The banana was a real challenge on the lathe <g>

Just wondering, are some of these stained or did you manage to find woods that were naturally those colors? Very cool. And nice work too.
