Projects for turning squares
There seems to be alot of great turning squares in 1.5" to 2" square
by 6" and longer availble through stores and ebay. I want to turn this wood but don't know what to make besides pens. Any thoughts? Thanks, Jay |

You'd also use such blanks for knobs on larger projects: http://www.delorie.com/wood/projects/router/pulls.jpg |

If you look in the "gallery" section of many woodturning reference books, you'll notice a lot of fancy boxes. Take a look at the sizes of the boxes and you'll find that many of them are actually quite small. -- Chuck *#:^) chaz3913(AT)yahoo(DOT)com Anti-spam sig: please remove "NO SPAM" from e-mail address to reply.
