# woodturning

And now for something completely apolitical . . . A couple of crazy hackberry wood bowls. The wood had been discarded from a windrow in southern Wisconsin. On the left is "E.T." and on the right is "E.T. found the edibles." #Woodturning #Woodworking #WoodArt

Two lathe-turned wooden bowls made from hackberry. Lots swirling grain striations and dramatic patterns made of light-yellow sapwood and grey-brown heartwood.

#woodturning yesterday yielded this cherry bowl. Hadn’t turned since spring. I have too many pieces and no one wants it. Found a craft shop on Southport island that will sell my things with proceeds to the animal shelter.

Today's pen is olive wood from Bethlehem, Palestine. 🪬🧿 #OliveWood #Wood #FountainPen #Handcrafted #WoodworkingArt #PenCollectors #BethlehemOlive #NaturalGrain #WritingTools #Artisan #Woodturning #CraftedWithLove

A handcrafted fountain pen made from olive wood sourced in Bethlehem, Palestine. The pen features warm, honey-colored wood grain with flowing natural patterns, complemented by gold-toned accents on the cap, clip, and nib. One half of the pen rests horizontally with its cap on, while the other lies open with the nib exposed, both placed on a dark wood surface that contrasts and highlights the pen’s rich, earthy tones.

one of the pens I made Feels like trapped a piece of the coastline inside 🌊🌲✍️ #Handmade #Woodworking #ResinArt #ScottishCraft #UniqueDesign #CustomPens #OceanVibes #WoodTurning #ArtisanMade #CreativeProcess 🪬🧿

A handcrafted wooden pen with a swirling resin design in deep blues, blacks, and golden streaks, resembling a turbulent coastline. The pen has a sleek metal tip and clip, resting on a dark wooden background. The colors and patterns give the illusion of ocean waves captured within the wood.

This stunning bowl was made by offset turning—shifting the axis several times. Ross Gordon decorates the rim with gesso and adds dimpled texture with a burr grinder. A bold example of thinking outside the "bowl." #instantgallery #woodturner #woodturning

It turned out that the faceplate works very nicely for glueing together such lengthy structures. #woodworking #woodturning

Adding glue to the pieces which I saw recently.

To apply pressure, I put them into the faceplate.

Just the upper part needed some additional pressure with clamps.

The glued piece. It just needs a little sanding to clean up the glued joint.

Got the bottom cut out and replaced with a plug of sapele, which is a nice contrast with the cherry. I gave it a tall foot both so you can see the contrast wood and also, probably, as overcompensation for having gotten it so thin the first time. #woodworking #woodturning #aproblemsolved #crafts

When you saw one of your bowls, the saying "trust the process" is more important than ever 😊 #woodworking #woodturning

A bowl made from walnut. It is just the beginning 😊

I sanded the surfaces where I sawed previously. Do you see what this will become? To be continued...

Getting the lathe set up to turn down this IU pen blank. This is always the part where it really starts coming to life, and I can't wait to see how it turns out. Let me know what you think down in the comments. #woodturning #indianauniversity #iu #indiana #craftycouplecreations

Went a bit thin on the bottom this time. But it's ok other than that I think I'll try cutting it out and gluing in a plug in a contrasting color. No one will know it was a mistake except me and you. #woodworking #woodturning #woops

Turned wooden box with such a thin bottom that light shines through.
