Just to keep you thinking, Bob, compartmentalized storage under the board?

Very nice. Can't wait to see the knights. Geo.

Well, here's the first finished knight. I opted to keep it simple.





Another blank in the lathe.



We'll see if I can make another the same.

Not with this set Bill. Maybe in the future builds.

You have a good pass time in that little woodshop of yours....for some reason i just dont have it in me to build things...😄

[rgfixit]

Good knight! 

"Mrs. Kalabash.....wherever you are!"

Thanks Bigguy. It's a blessing.......and, a curse! My Dad was a constantly tinkering around with stuff. I've been taking things apart and putting them together since I was a little kid. His tool box was never safe from me. But, one thing I always did was put the tools back where I "borrowed " them from. Can't say he was always happy with my mechanical explorations, but he'd help me reassemble whatever it was I shouldn't have taken apart.

This is the design for the next set.



Scroll saw project. It'll be clear pine. One side natural or maybe stained white and the other stained black. Fits on a 12" x 12" board although I think it will end up 14"x14" using maple and dark stained oak for the squares and possibly a walnut inlay between the squares. The board will fold and be the storage box for the pieces.

 A fun little departure from the lathe.
