May Challenge - The results

[nev]

Apologies for the delay, that work thing getting in the way :roll:

From Paul...

Hi Nev,
Results as follows.

1st Nev: A different approach with the combination of shapes.
2nd Silverbirch: Nicely turned. The plug in the base is a good idea.
3rd SheptonPhil: Technically complex and well executed.
4th MelindaDD: Nice work with the shade.
5th Heatherw: Simple design taking advantage of the natural features in the wood.

Well done to all who had a go. It would be nice to see more entries so for the rest of the turners - stop reading this and get turning!

Sorry about the delay. It's taken me a week to catch up after my week away!

Thank you muchly (and also to Random Bob)
A good combination of plagiarism (woodturning mag), ingenuity (pen tubes), a little skill :wink: (the turning bit) and a lot of luck (getting it to balance correctly).

Hi Nev...why am I being thanked? Confused? What have I done to deserve that?

For your previous comment on the 'post your entries here' thread,( that was modedited cos it was a bit previous to the judging)

 

[Random Orbital Bob]

Ah...I see...apologies for that....note to self...actually read the rules (forum equivalent of rtfm

 

[Random Orbital Bob]

however....notwithstanding the mod edit...I stand by what I said...that table lamp was a masterpiece of design
