..and back to the "norm"

[gandy]

here are a couple bits of jewellery ive made in the week/started last week

was quite happy with the colours in the walnut, before i started it look as if it would have been a dark gray, but by the time i cut into it, it was a nice light toffee colour, and look nice with the "normalness" of the brown heartwood, the customer was most happy, when he asked to make him some eyelets in a darker wood he said he wanted "something a bit different"

also made a 16mm x 9mm amboyna burl oval, no lathe work at all

Very nice work indeed.

Must be really different working to such a small scale, any chance you could include a 5p or something in your photos for scale?

Cheers,

you mean like this?

hehe

4mm olive rings. although theres limit lathe work on those, just rounding it off to the outside dia, and putting a hole in it, the rest was done by hand.
