In Progress: Benjie has a Lathe (and a chainsaw...and fire)

Back when Benjie was a potter, platters were his favorite things to make. He has always admired Rick Hensley's work and suspects that is why he has had his eye on a lathe for years now.

These are all in progess right now in the studio, but by Friday's open house they will all be ready to check out.




These current experiments have been with the lathe, a chainsaw, a wire brush and a torch.
This has a rosewood stain and since this photo has endured some torching.
