Mr Blister sir... So if it's already been asked... On my phone and it's not the best for internet surfing/reading all threads.

is different woods allowed... Eg top bottom finial... ?not segmented with lots

Hi ,

Up to 3 different wood types will be allowed , but not multiple segmented work

 

[Blister]

Is it too late for a new entrant? I'd quite like to enter this challenge.

Dagnammit!, Very Impressive, I will have to get a Lathe and start practicing.
In the mean time do you know if there any similar monthly wood related challenges for me to get my teeth into that are not exclusive to Turners?[/quote]

Hello

Sorry cant help with woodworking challenges ,I am unaware of any

Hope you get a lathe sorted soon :wink:

I am but one of the many, but for what it's worth, I would welcome new entrants.

I love seeing our monthly photo fest and more the merrier. What I get from the challenge is the personal challenge which makes me try different things and then seeing the breadth of interpretations great for ideas and pure enjoyment of seeing lots of new work.

I note there is no dimension restriction.

I take it that means Gordon is allowed to introduce his lidded bowl, er I mean ashes urn, ummm biscuit barrel, ah box, yes that's it BOX.

Probably sold it now - can he enter a box bottom (bowl).

I thought I would ask on his behalf as he reckons I'm full of. .........

Pedantry! At least that's what I thought he said, but I've never liked children!

Thank you for that Colin,

It may be gorn tomorrow, it goes up for sale at a ........flower festival!! I'm sure there is a connection somewhere. Anyway, all the rich gits will be there so its going up for loadsa money and we will see. I suspect that I won't be allowed to enter it now its been seen anyway.

But I have a cunning plan....a special box for Jonzjob - he'll LURVE it

I'm going for the French one first.

It'll probably be soooo big that it starts from the bottom of his heart! Or is that the heart of his ummmm, don't go there John

 

[Wood spoiler]

When you started on sharpened wood and hearts I thought you were going for a vampire moment!

Now there's a thought .... No a finial, a finial , a finial

That's better

Hi guys

Can I join in?

Just started turning (3 bowls so far) and taking part in the challenges will be a good exercise and force me to have a go at stuff I may not have considered.

Thanks
