the days turnings

Some bowls, a rattle, some christmas decorations, a rolling pin for me and a small baseball bat for my son. Not a bad day.

All a days work ...   :o ..  that is some very nice pieces, looks as if they need a finish, would be nice to see the individual pieces once that is done, the spalted beech bowls look like nice forms. Hmmm..  rolling pin and bat.  A resize on current picture would shew better clearer details.

Well done and cheers      David

Yes, all but one need oiling. I tend not to go for a high gloss finish and just do a few coats of linseed oil.
As for resizing the photo, I'm not sure how to do that, as I sent it from my phone. I'll look into it.

A nice collection of Spalts you've got there, they will look great when oiled (boiled linseed I presume).
