Curly Maple and Sapele Mahogany vase - Splinterz25 - 08-07-2017
[attachment=3620]Hello everyone I'm new to this site thought I would show you what I've been up to; I haven't picked up a lathe chisel in over a year, been working on an old house we bought. Well I'm on vacation and took a few days and put this project together. So I just finished turning this 13" x 7.5 " Curly Maple and Sapele Mahogany vase Yesterday, it still needs a few more coats of varnish. I hope you all like it as much as I did making it.

First Welcome and hope you keep coming here and sharing your fine work with us.
I like how you did it and the fit and finish also. Do you buff them to a higher polish when done?

Thank you guys I think I'll like this site. I have a question though how do you add to your profile? Photo, Icon etc.
Arlin: Yes it will get buffed , I'm old school I'll steel wool and varnish it a few more times them buff w/ tree wax.

It has been so long since I have done it I do not remember but I know one of the other guys will help you.
I went to your home page https://www.forums.woodnet.net/member.php?action=profile&uid=126268 and noticed I am exactly 7 days older then you.

I think I just remembered how to do it.
Go the the upper left part of this page which says "User CP with a guy on the left to it" and click on it.
I was in the first desert storm and after that for 9 total tours in the middle east.
