    Horse Chestnut Hollow Form With Rosewood Collar

    Thanks and yes, and I'm not sure why I didn't as normally I would do a slight concave curve on a flush fitting collar to keep the flow going but in this case......? I guess it just felt right in the moment :lol:

    Horse Chestnut Hollow Form With Rosewood Collar

    Thanks everyone :D I'm just pleased to have turned something after not having the chance to do so for so long (hammer) I just hope that the rest of my Horse Chestnut looks as nice as this does.

    Horse Chestnut Hollow Form With Rosewood Collar

    Hello all, this is the first thing I have turned for a long time, I've been busy building an extension on our new house since early in the year and with other work and stuff, haven't had a great deal of workshop time. My poor old Maxi2 has rust on it!!! After a bit of de-rusting I had a little...

    Wood burning stove

    We moved last year and the house had a lined chimney ready for a woodburner but no stove as the tightwads here before us took it with them! After a quick trawl of the net I found Firefox brand stoves, I got a 12kw twin door one for around £550 (had to enlarge the fireplace a bit...lol)and have...

    Anyone else fly radio controlled quadcopters/multirotors?

    TBH Stu, as cool as the phantoms are, building one from parts will be much cheaper and is pretty straight forward, providing you can weild a soldering iron 8)

    Anyone else fly radio controlled quadcopters/multirotors?

    Stu, your mates sounds very impressive! Gav, they do look nice, I like the fiddling around making my own approach rather than the out of the box jobs(It's cheaper that way :lol: ). I'm currently building a pixhawk controlled one to carry my gopro and gimbal, it does all the fancy GPS stuff and...

    Thanks John, I'll look in to that, if it doesn't mess with the colour too badly it might be just what I'm looking for :)

    Post a photo of the last thing you made

    This is my first 'proper'(indoor) piece of non turned woodwork, a large chest/box for my wife(not put her in it yet :lol: ). It's made from pallets that have been accumulating from our house extension over the last several months. It's mostly put together with pocket hole screws and glue, apart...

    Anyone else fly radio controlled quadcopters/multirotors?

    On this little one I'm using a Mobius action cam, they're pretty good and can be had for about £40, on the larger ones I use a gopro hero3.

    Anyone else fly radio controlled quadcopters/multirotors?

    I got a quadcopter on a whim about 18 months ago after a mate showed me a video of one on youtube, I soon got tired of buying replacement parts and took to building my own from 3mm ply and 12mm pse pine. Then more recently I discovered the world of mini racing quads, made from carbon fibre...

    Router table?

    Thanks, I thought that may be the case with the first machine. I am going to put my table saw into a 6x4 foot moveable table so maybe i can mount my router in one end of that and then I can make one double sided fence for both tools? Although the holding options of the table I linked with the...

    Router table?

    I am a woodturner, but am being slowly seduced by the desire to make some flat stuff (watched too many episodes of NYW with Norm making cool stuff) :shock:, I'm putting some (mostly rubbish) kit together and want to get/make a router table, nothing too serious (money wise) but functional...

    Clarke planer thicknesser.

    Thanks, after watching that video another came up with a planer thicknesser of the same style(not as rubbish looking mind, lol) as mine, the guy in the video simply fed all the boards he was doing through end to end together, that is holding the start of next one against the end of the one...

    Clarke planer thicknesser.

    I have been gifted a clarke 10" planer thicknesser, I've never used one before (I'm a woodturner and my flatwork is, shall we say limited, lol), I set it all up with the rollers levelled with the bed and proceeded to feed in my boards, it works OK and gives a flat, reasonably smooth surface but...
