42 Tops

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


42 TopsI used to have a few tops along at shows to give to the kids but they are all gone. So, while I don't have any projects in the shop, I pulled some scraps out of the burn barrel and got as many tops as I could out of the pieces..it turned out to be 42. The wood is cherry, sycamore and mesquite. I tried to make every one a little different so no 2 are exactly the same. Turning the shafts on them is like production and I don't like production, but cutting the shapes on the bottom was all fun.They will be unfinished and I'll put my name on each one for advertising.I used my Southbend metal lathe collets ( that I adapted to the Nova lathe) to hold them for turning the bottoms.. They run really true.


Cheers, JimI have a set of collets from Penn State and they have a wider range but are not as true as the Southbend ones.
