Hand Crafted Black Walnut Platter with Swirl Grain

I have dabbled in wood working for many years, even though I was a tool and die maker by trade. My dad's old wood lathe sat in the corner of my shop and collected dust. I always thought all that could be done on a wood lathe was chair legs and stair spindles. Then I saw a video of someone making a bowl on a wood lathe. I have been hooked ever since. I have been turning just about everything I can get my hands on.
Sometimes, you have an idea as to what you want the piece of wood to become. Other times the details within the wood guide you as though the wood is telling you what it wants to become.
