Spark plug light pulls - why not?

What a novel idea. Nice turning.

Very nice, Stewart! That looks like some minute and precise work.

These are neat. I may try turning some myself Stewart. So cool.

Those are pretty cool. Maybe a ruler next to them so those of us out in the colonies knew how big they were? LOL…They do look cool!

Pretty neat idea Mr. Stewart. What do your friends do with them. put them on their key chains or what? Oh I just read they use the for light pulls. Never mind. mike

Hey I got an idea, how about some spark plug earrings for that lady mechanic that has everything ! Nice job.

What a great imagination you have, Stewart! These are great!

I must say, though… given your usual attention to detail, I’m a bit disappointed there are no electrodes protruding from the threaded ends. <g>

Thank you Jocks for your interest in my ‘whimsies’.

Toyguy – Funny you should say that! See below. I made these three or four years ago for my wife. I’d thought about doing another pair for the 2” x 4” challenge <g> Maybe not.

Tom will be pleased I photographed them against a sort of ruler background, albeit the wrong sort – those millimetre things! Anyhow, they’re just under 1” long. On my PC screen they’re coming up a double actual size. I ground some tiny turning tools from those hard masonry nails & old jigsaw (sabre saw??) blades.

You’re incredible Stewart. That is precision turning.

Very cool. What wood is the middle one made from? I recognize the last one as beech.

BTW that’s one funny looking coin :-)

Thanks for the comments folks.

Gary – I had in mind that it was ash,but on having another look at the picture – i’m not certain! Sorry about that. Probably came from the fire log pile.

The coin is a fifty pence piece – equates to about a US dollar. That particular one is from the Isle of Man; hence the motor cycle image on it – from the TT Races. The small island, in the Irish Sea, has its own government and hence the coinage is not legal tender on the UK mainland.

Stewart. You are an amazing woodworker. If there was ever anyone who thought outside the box, you are leading the charge. So many unique items come from your shop.

Great job.
