We had a big storm take down a big walnut and a cherry tree, the trunks are currently over a friends place waiting for there turn on his mill and the tops were cut up for bonfires next summer. When the logs are milled hopefully I’ll have something really worth posting here.

Beautiful!

I’ve been turning a couple of years and your work is excellent. Must have a good instructor ;)

I had to read your description twice to see if I actually read you had no experience turning, those are some very nice pieces.

Very nice Frank. It is amazing what you find on the firewood heap.

I give up. Between the posting for the boxes and turnings I am going to have to find more shop time somehow. These are gorgeous pieces that were almost (gasp) firewood. If these are “first” pieces then either (1) you have missed your calling as a woodworker or (2) turning is so easy that anyone can do it.

Somehow I suspect that (1) is the case here.

Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice first work! That bowl is really nice with the way it necks down, that is not easy!! And you should check out the 2X4 contest and ask yourself how much of that walnut is really firewood?!?
