I attend a Toastmasters Christmas party each year. We have a ornament exchange as part of the festivities. I decided to make one for the occasion.
The two spindles, top and bottom, are made from African Blackwood. The middle is made from a unique piece of cocobolo I acquired several years back. The white sandwich wood is tiger maple.
I think it turned (sic) out pretty well.

Tonight I took @Mandaris ‘s beginner chain maille class. Kinda cool, really. But brain twisting until it finally “clicks”.
Yet another new interest vortex…

So I made these today. I’ve taken a pen class with John, another couple turning classes with @Lordrook Steve. Finally though was able to take at this knowledge and go through the process “by myself” with some help and borrowed tools from Ryan. This is a Christmas pen for my mom, Steve made the blank.

Nice.
It really needs an “exposed brain” lid. Or just a brain that can sit inside of it.

At one time it had some horns rising out of it.
Albeit another random piece of green ware just stashed in there for easier transport.

I made a ridiculous stop motion animation for my library. The staff is super-creative, and especially with voice-acting. Thanks to Adnan at DMS for all the pointers in video-editing with Adobe Premiere. @Team_PR

Herb choppers. Made from old farrier’s files, the handles are upset and drawn from the files, the blades are then forged, ground, heat treated, and sharpened.

@Julie-Harris beat me to it, but this is what we did in college with one of those glass heads used in retail stores to display hats.
@ladysandry freaking amazing stuff there!

No judgment if it’s not a collar for a dog - this is not a place of judgement.
