Even with a proper camera and trying multiple amounts of lighting I had a hard time getting the color tone just right. The last picture is too yellow but shows the grain better than the first 2 (which seem to mute the grain for some reason) but I wanted to get a pic with all my pipes on it. It essentially came out the color of the first 2 pics with the visible grain of the last. I'm not a photographer LOL. I got it done just in time to find out I'm getting a decent tax return this year and am going to be setting up a proper shop, with the tools I would have needed to build it right. None the less I'm going to get setup and might load this thing up with some pipe's I'm going to try my hand at making...


    None the less here's the finished project.





    These pictures are in the wrong thread, looks to me like you've been "lovn wood" there Lynn Jr.

    Just wait til I really get the old lathe spinning. Might need to go spend some time down in the holler and learn from the master himself
