I would say that turning a piece of wood that size even on that lathe
would be a really exciting experience when you are getting started.

Then I saw the gouge you tackled the project with... nice.

Being a fellow Texan, I am surprised that if you call your telephone
poles "Texas ebony" you don't call those pics "Texas spindle turning".

Did you have help getting that monster up on the lathe, or did you use
a hoist?

Hi Art

Exceptional work Art, you've been busy, there's a lot more "stuff" on
your website than before.

Even though I miss some of the pics that where there before.

Hope you have someone to help out and soak up some of all the things
you have learned in a lifetime.
Thanks for sharing.

Have fun and take care
Leo Van Der Loo
