Peppermills-- Any Non-Phallic Shapes ?

Brad Vietje

>Decided to turn a few 10" peppermills as Christmas gifts this year ... Anyone know of a good source for some shape ideas ? Most I've seen are pretty darned, well, phallic. I've imagined a design like a tall rook from a chess set ... any other good ideas ?

>...try turning non-phallic mushrooms! Once you "see" it, you can't "un-see" it.

>While chess pieces is an idea, I've seen bottles and plain tubular styles. The point of fact is is that anything between centers is male and bowl turning is female. It's best to just get over it.

>I feel your pain. I turned a couple of mushrooms from a greenwood branch a while back and took them to work. I got so many "mind-in-the-gutter" comments I finally just put the damned things in my desk drawer!
