A little miracle of nature shines on me again with his shining eyes and does not even know what happens to him :D It has itched my fingers again and so I have ventured to new chic wood.

This time, Bocote and Wenge compete. Two beautiful precious woods which, I think, fit together perfectly.

Bocote is a gold-yellow to coffee-brown South American and Wenge is a heavy Central African with large, decorative pores - so it could only become a fiery ring.

In the next picture you can see how deep I have to dig to get where I want to go;)

However, the real challenge is to get all sides even. To check this I use a (ur-) old caliper. That's the name of the chic part, which by the way is also super photogenic, with which I can see exactly where I am still a long way from "round".

I hope you like my new workpiece ..!

Very nice work. I hope i will do such one myself.
Unfortunetelly i don't have a lathe. i will attach some wood to drill to make it faster. Greetings.

Thank you for upvote. I also have a very small lathe, but you can make it well without a machine. I mostly use the lathe only for the finish
