| Urn 6" by 12" |
Last May Toni and I took the van to Lincolnshire for a visit to Adam and Petra's house for a fun run. I came across a large woodpile and was kindly offered a few log sections to take home.
The body of the urn is spalted horse chestnut from one of the logs with a cap of laburnum and a beech finial from my firewood pile. Finished with Chestnut wax. Right click on the caption for a larger view in Flickr.
(Thanks Adam and Petra!)

In with the new
The old shop (garden shed) was in dire need of replacing a year ago. Last September I had the new shop dried in and I'm now a little over a year on in heated and insulated comfort.
Most of my shop time over the last year has been spent on a Wivamac lathe that replaces on old Axminster AWVSL 1000 bought after xmas 2009, (I sold it after two months).
