This piece of Norfolk Island Pine was given to me by our Club Secretary who purchased it at the AAW Symposium in KC. This was the first time I have turned NIP. It was bone dry but still fun to turn. It measures 7" dia. x 7-1/2" tall and the walls are 1/16". Weighs only 6-1/2 OZ.

Finished with high gloss laquer and a bit of steel wool to ease down the shine.
