Pepperwood Owl

I am hoping to try three different pictures this Year, thought this one was a bit of fun to try. Made by double accentric turning, to get into both centres.

I would love to have been watching while you turned this to see how you lined up the centres and kept all your fingers and thumbs and hands and things.

ALL i DID bRENDAN WAS DRILL A SMALL HOLE IN EACH CENTRE oops, fat fingers again, and put the live centre into that hole, tightened up the chuck and turned it out. I have had a fair amount of eccentric turning practice with the Goblets that I've made, so not too difficult ??????
