laminating pepper mills
I've seen some really nice looking pepper mills where the alternating
colors of wood have been angled in such a way to look when turned, varying thicknesses and shapes. What I can't find is a link or source to learn how to do the same.HAs anyone ever done the laminating and had it come out nice, or soes anyone know of a step by step link to learn...thanks in advance Eric |

It's not too hard. Basically you glue up a block of contrasting woods
sandwiched together. Then you slice the block diagonally and reglue it so that the woods are slanted diagonally, and turn away. If you are handy with a CAD program, you can map it all out and see what the wood patterns will look like based on the shape you turn. I'll post some photos on ABPW. Galanw wrote in message ...
