Good looking piece of wood.
First of all, I don't have a lathe yet and dont turn. I do make other items. I have cut the 3x3 block into thin 3" x 1/8" strips and use them for wood wallets (my name for them) actually credit card and money holds that are slim and fit in front pocket, instead of rear pocket. I also make wood mallets and cut down the 3" x 3" blocks to whatever size I need for heads or handles. I love the Ambrosia Maple for the handles. Really a great look coupled with darker, harder woods for the heads. I'll be buying more items when bank balance permits
