At least I had a few pieces lined up for content already... though I am now running out and need to get making again. Really enjoying the Dremel sponsorship as it is starting to make me think of other things that I can do to make things interesting.

    For decades I have turned Christmas trees and snowmen out of the trunk of the prior years Christmas tree. I allocate 3-5 minutes each. After roughing them with a gouge, turn them entirely with a skew chisel. Using a skew, a good turner can leave a tool finish that does not require sanding. I date them with the previous year date and give them away to friends and family.

    Hi Mark... Thank you very much.. I'm glad that you liked it... The parting tool is just a really easy way to finish the bottom of a deep groove.. My gouges wouldn't get down there without catching the wings and the skew chisel would leave it with a sharpe internal cut... and easy to get a catch... I don't like skews... Just rounding off the corners of a 2mm thin parting tool made it quick and easy to finish off what can be an awkward place with no chance of catches and easy to sand... I hope this explains why I used it... Thank you... God bless you and yours... Take care my friend...All the best.....Andy
