another spiral Blackwood
« on: October 22, 2019, 01:07:10 PM »
I have been wanting add a twist to the open spirals. So this is what I came up with, it not quite right as to what I and in my minds eye so to speak.
Had some difficulties getting a clear shot of the twist, hence the up-side down shot

Pete they are very effective too look at and sell well. But the not so hard to do once you get the hang of it. I reckon if you and I got together on the lathe you would be knocking this out fairly smartly. They appear more difficult than they really are.
