all my woodwork so far

my latest load of skittles.

 

made all for one retailer of alleys and skittles he wanted two sets of the bristol shape (left) and 12 sets of the gloucester (right).

 

took friday to friday to cut the blanks and turn them and created about 4 cubic meters of shavings...

That's a heck of lot of skittles mate. Hats off to you for persistence there Steve. Beech I presume?

[se7enthdevil]

yep, beech they are. he's cleaned me out of 4" now so i need to find more.

 

i've still got to turn him the 4 1/2" sets of his order so another 6 sets i think.

Blimey, it's like the tv ad, everything you touch turns to skittles

Have you got a copy lathe?

What's even sadder is the time spent lining them all up

 

How long per skittle then?

[se7enthdevil]

i've no copy lathe, i do them all by hand.

from square blank to in the box is 10-15mins.

 

 

i lined them up as i wanted to take a snap as i've not had that many turned in one go before. only took 5 mins.

You must still see skittles even when you close your eyes!
