Last years turnings
lester gillett
Here are some of the turnings I made last year. Some of them are made out of Elm
burl and the one with Oak burl. The large platter on the wall is Walnut and the round
jar with lied is Sycamore and walnut. Still earing to turn dry wood and have the bottoms
come out smooth. Also the mirror is out of White Oak that I cut out on a friends sawmill
and dried in a solar kiln.

Thanks for the show-and-tell, Lester. Nice stuff. What is next on your list?

Ellis I have two small Oak Burls that I am going to make a lidded box and I have a
14" elm pica that I will make a rim bowl. The Elm has a hole from the side to the center
for the bottom. Planning to rough turn it and then epoxy the hole closed with saw dust
from the turning. Hope to have them done in a couple of weeks.
