Joe joins us with a range of pieces turned on his Nova lathe.

We start off with a bowl blank - which is a good place to start since a "blank" is what most turners start their work off with . . . |
|
. . . and this is what Joe made from the blank, or at least one which was pretty similar to the one pictured on the left. |

Now for a couple of shots of a vase which Joe made. This one must have taken some hollowing out - it's about a foot high. And now for the surprise - it's made of plywood! Nice work, Joe. Thanks for sharing it with us. | |||

And for those who prefer a more historical style, here's an amphora which Joe made from Yew, based on vessels from the ancient world. |
| And finally this one shows that not all bowl blanks are alike. This beech platter started out as a piece of laminated kitchen worktop - in fact it was the waste piece which was cut out to make a space for the sink. Joe was keen not to let that off-cut go "down the drain" (groan!!). |
