But what are they? (not boxes)
Just getting things ready to pack to take with me for the American Association of Woodturners Symposium. Here are a couple of pieces.. Wondering what they are? If you are attending the symposium make sure to sit in on my rotations on Friday afternoon or Sunday morning to find out. If you can't be there, I'll let you know afterwards!
I've almost got everything together and am really looking forward to the weekend. See you there if you are going.

Hi I recognize some of the item. Are those some of the pieces you start to be able to show them what is involved with making the piece. Wish I was able to attend. Linda

Looks as good as a box. I'll have one like that please.
Lovely work, can't wait to hear all about them!
The detail and finish is second to none. Very jealous of those who will be attending and seeing the demonstration.
Do you have any plans of shooting a DVD or instructional video? I'm guessing there would be a lot of interest from turners everywhere.
+Joy Wandrey Thanks a lot, Joy. They have a special use, not only for the demos.
+Martin Boyle Thanks very much Martin. I would like to make an instructional video, it's finding the time which is the hardest thing.
It's been on my 'to do' list for the last 2 years. I wish I could get Ben and his team who made the "Turns" video which I'm sure you have seen, but if not, it's here:
. Unfortunately I wouldn't have a budget for that. It would take instructional videos to a new level.
Partly, yes, +Linda Jess but there will be another use for this on this trip as well. And you are welcome to come by any time, as you know.
Lovely shot,looks interesting
One of your fellow countrymen, astronaut Chris Hadfield, wrote a chapter in his autobiography in which he demonstrated how perfection lies in 'sweating the small stuff', and why that's so important. Composers and artists like Beethoven and Michelangelo got that point, too. Seems to me that your work is rendered in the same spirit. These are beautiful objects — whatever they are!
Lynn, I'm lost for words. Thank you for that great compliment.
I guess it's a form of obsession.
