Small Pear Wood Bowl
This is a Pear wood bowl, 1.75 inches high by 4 inches in diameter. This wood is a dream to turn, nice and smooth, and beautiful wood that finishes nicely. I'm looking forward to working more with this wood.

Turned Toothpick Cup
Here is a small toothpick cup turned on a lathe. One inch in diameter and a little over two inches high, it's made from spalted silver maple wood. It was supposed to be a lidded canister but the wood is a little too punky (soft from the decay that produces the spalting). I couldn't drill a straight and centered hole to make the interior, and so the lid wouldn't fit right. So, I punted and called it a toothpick cup.
