Here are a couple of custom oil bottles and some special ring studs for powder horn attachments I just completed. Fun to do different things.

Dave,

I always enjoy seeing examples of your work.  And using any of your tools is always such a pleasure.

Thanks for posting these pictures.

Dave, Those bottles are outstanding, just like any of your other projects.  There are just not enough hours in the day to play on the lathe, which is one of my favorite tools also.

Those are really beautiful. Add one of Rase's measures and you have a start to a nice set.
