Six sided turned trumpet
« on: February 08, 2012, 04:01:42 PM »
Here is a decorative entry to Nationals. You may look at it and say whats so special about it? Well it's going into the Turned Only category. I used a age old method of turning that has been long forgotten in this modern society. It was a method developed hundreds of years ago to help craftsman speed up the process of making ax and hammer handles. I tweeked their method slightly and developed a way to make an almost flat sided turkey call. It has been a real fun project, with the research and history making it all that much more rewarding. Again turned 100% on the lathe I give you "The Six Sider".
