Several years ago my wife gave me a 6" x 6" x 3" blank of Black and White Ebony as a present. I didn't turn anything from it - every time I saw it in my wood stash I thought - "It's too expensive to just screw up." I finally summoned up the courage to plunge ahead a couple of weeks ago, and here is the resulting turning. It measures 5.5" diameter and is 2.5" high. Presently it is unfinished. I will probably just polish and wax since the grain is so tight and the surface so smooth.
On this blog I post photos and commentary regarding my woodturning (and, occasionally, woodworking) projects. While my efforts to stay current by adding new photos and descriptions sometimes fall behind, keep checking back to see what's new. Comments are appreciated.
