Leftovers from Last Winter/Spring

Finally got around to finishing up some blanks from last winter/spring. Just have to put the epoxy finish on and they're all set.

First are some "mistake" blanks that I received from Salty (txs). I made them into my version of a canal pencil popper. Thanks to Diggin Jiggin for the use of his lathe and his guidance along the way.

Last is my attempt at a Polaris from scratch. Again, thanks goes to Diggin Jiggin for use of his lathe and guidance. Color scheme courtesy of my 7 yr old.
