Turning - My Quest For A Wood Star

After turning an eight point star inspired a few weeks ago, I had a another thought about how to turn a star yet another way. I was not sure it could be successful. However, I decided to try.
Previously I have:
- Turned a sphere and added finials;
- Turned a cube into a star using a specific, custom jig;
- Turned a cube into a star using a pen mandrel centered on faces, then adding finials;
- Turned a cube into a star using a pen mandrel centered on faces but with much deeper coves, then adding finials;
- And now, turn a cube into a star using the corners of the cube. Could I add finials???
I am now wondering where else my star quest can go.

What do you think about the differences in the process? Which do you prefer?
Enjoy.

Great , it is nice when the turning community shares ideas and we expand on them..we all benefit
Absolutely!
Alan
can't say it's beautiful, but it is a wonderful challenge and yet another way to think about turning. thanks for sharing!
We're in agreement. Thank you
Alan
Another interesting star. The benefit of 3D printing custom centres is very apparent in this one.
I sent you some pictures, on Instagram, of the 12 pointed star that I made after your last video. Hopefully I'll have some videos and pictures of a 20 point star soon, it's currently on the lathe and being marked out for turning.
Keep them coming, it's great seeing what geometries emerge from different methods.
Saw your pics. Very interesting.
Alan
Wow that’s incredible.
Thank you
Alan
Thanks, Alan!
You're welcome
Alan
Interesting to watch 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Alan
Love your progression of stars! I've marveled then made each predecessor to this one. Perhaps there is a 12-step program for those with this condition.
The steps would have to be turned! :)
Alan
Nice star Alan.
Thank you Jack

Alan; Make another finial at the center of each flat. Made to resemble the points shown. No-one will be able to figure it out if you use the same wood.
Great tip - Appreciate the thought behind it.
Alan
Very interesting. I like the technique but not so much the result. I don't think I like the square blocks that it produces. Maybe a bit of creative carving with a Dremel would work. Regardless this is a great video. thank you for sharing. Have a great day and continue to stay safe. I will too.🙂🙂
Fair enough! I appreciate the tip
Alan
very interesting. But I really don't like the look. Good job though. Looked tough.
Fair enough! Could the look be the foundation for something more?
Alan
First view!
And I thank you
Alan
Sorry Alan I think that the square bits left make it look ugly to me almost unfinished
So, what could you do about the square bits?
