Chestnut Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 I don't understand turning wood at all but I'm impressed that they are all almost identical if not identical. Done over 6 months and a year and 6 months ahead of time, don't loose them, i probably would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done over 6 months and a year and 6 months ahead of time, don't loose them, i probably would. I marked the lines on a piece of scrap and then transfer those lines to the blank. From there, it's just a matter of turning to those lines and use indicators for thickness. They are not all identical I can assure you. Only getting them done this early due to my travel/work schedule.. Last year, I got home 3 days before Christmas which wouldn't have been enough time to get them done.

Just saying ... but you got them all done in 3 days this year. Great looking line-up of cheese and pie tools too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I do some cutting boards that way, it just made sense to give it a try.. Here's the first attempt.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
