I've also got some straighter, bigger pieces, about 3' long .
Christmas ornaments.
We do segmented turning, not because it is easy, but because it is hard.

Goblets.
Better to follow the leader than the pack. Less to step in.

I like the goblet idea. I don't drink wine, so maybe use grape juice??

I have never turned it but heard it is nice to work and has some good color in it. Things to make is boxes, ornaments, bottle stoppers, pens, goblets, and even cut it up and make some inside outside turnings out of it.
I would love to hear and see what you make out of it.
Plan on giving some away?
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

You tube has lot of goof ideas for small spindle turning, might be worth a look. I like the one on off center weed pots!
