Woodturning Off Center Bat and Ball
My first attempt at this piece turned out pretty good I think! Let me know if you agree
Many of the woods I use are from trees that are cleared for construction. This is wood that would otherwise be burned or end up in a landfill.
To me, it is exciting to find the hidden beauty in a chunk of wood. Even a very plain piece of wood offers design opportunities. When working with plain wood, I often enhance the wood by carving or burning. My carved and burned designs mimic textures and patterns found in nature.

Thanks!
That is really cool!!
Here I am at the end. That's a super job. A lot of drama in there when the skew got close to the ball - I held my breath! Cheers Heather, that was most enjoyable.

Better be ash or all my time in Little League was for naught ! I didn't see it until ~ 24:00 and it all clicked ! I am amazed with off center turns - this is a great design and execution for sure. And more than amazed, awed perhaps?, on how round the baseball is !!! Thanks for sharing Heather. Take care. -Mike

Thanks Mike! I'm surprised how well the ball turned out too! I didn't even use a template!

Very cleaver. I would guess it is Ash. Taking the skew so near your ball had me on edge, glad no mishaps.

I'm only half way through Heather but enjoying this a lot. What is the tool you start using at about 11:40? Perhaps I can't see it properly watching on my phone but it looks unusual to me...

That tool is one that I saw @Tomislav Tomasic make on his channel. I'm not sure what it's called, but it works fantastic for getting into tight corners,with spindle work
Nooooo. This is for advance turners. We don't want you to break those pretty little hands.
