Why display w axis vertical?
Charlie Belsen
With multi axis turning, sometimes none of the axis are, in the finished piece, vertical (square to the surface on which the piece is displayed). This can cause the asymmetric piece to lean, sometimes adding implied movement to the piece, sometimes just hinting that something is just not normal.
That got me wondering. Many turnings are not intended to be functional but rather as wood sculpture. Once the need for functionality is removed, why can a flat spot be created just of the 'normal' bottom, allowing the piece to be displayed 'leaning'?
