So I posted a couple of Christmas tree ornaments the other day, not only here but also at a couple of other site I frequent….... and as always I also posted a link to this project to my Facebook account.
As soon as a golfing friend saw them, she requested one for herself…...... And I just couldn’t say no…. so here is another one.
Spalted maple and cherry, 2’ by about 5” .....very light, and in my opinion..maybe the best I have ever made….... I’m sure she we enjoy it.

So nice. I can see I’m going to have to hurry up with my lathe so that I can have a go at such neat projects.

Timely reminder Brian to get cracking on thoes Xmas tree hangings. Oh & by the way this is just too good to maybe be packed away in a box for 360 other days of the year, love the combo
