Way too cool. Bet it was some kind of fun keeping your fingers out of the way. Also bet that it made some strange sounds while whirling round at speed. 8)

How often do you have to back away from the lathe and count your fingers? With more gap than wood do you turn that faster or slower?

I showed this to a guy at work and all he could say was WOW!!! You are inspiring Gary, I keep wanting to follow your examples (I guess that is a nice way of saying I want to try copying your work).

your winged pieces are at the top notch now Gary, not many could touch you when it comes to this sort of work...I know I couldn't...when are you going to demo at AAW? Wink
