I’ve made a bunch of these over the years when I have some nice wood. I make the edges pointy so it looks like a flying saucer. Great wedding gift. Nice video, thanks.
Nice candle holder. I was thinking bubinga, but it’s too brown for that. You mentioned teak in another comment, and that might be what it is. Still is nice lumber, and turning.
Thank you Bernard! 👍 I only have two finishes, a danish oil and a foodsafe oil. Danish on this one. Looking for other types. Do you have any to recomend.
I have some sapele blanks that look very similar. So i tried your design with one and the final product was very similar also. So maybe sapele... But not 100%

Thank you 😃 Maybe bubinga, hadn’t thought of that. Just worked with some walnut and it’s not that.
👍 Very nice!
What finish product do you use?

@@nordicturning I use friction polish for most of my lathe work. Almost everything else gets Danish oil.
@@sethowens I got some friction polish, but rarely use it.. I probably should 😉
Very nice looking piece. Where did you get the gold liner/holder?
Thank you Ed! 😃 I found these in a craft shop 👍

Hi Jon 😃 Maybe you’re right, kind of looks like sapele.
Looks like walnut.
I’m not sure.. a bit too red for walnut and too hard is my thought. Maybe teak?
@@nordicturning that could be a possibly.
