GALLERY - members' turning

Photos of items made by members during the coronavirus outbreak, when club meetings were cancelled and we were all "locked down" at home.

Add your photos to the gallery

Club members - to add photos simply email them as an attachment, preferably with a few details, to the secretary Lance Garrard, or to Steve Fearnley. The ideal size is around 800 x 600 pixels, though anywhere close to this is fine.

To keep down the number of photos on each page, I have split them into months:

One of my other hobbies is ...

One of Lance's other hobbies is landscape photography.
Have a look at some beautiful photos of beautiful places at https://www.flickr.com/photos/metrisk

One of Steve Fearnley's other hobbies is gardening - have a look at his illustrated gardening diary at
https://www.oldfern.co.uk/indexgarden.php (work in progress).

One of Peter Howell's other hobbies is 3D printing. There are some notes on printing visors for care homes, and a link to thingiverse, where there are a few pictures of items Peter has made.

Things I have made in my workshop ...

Lance suggested we send in photos of things not necessarily made during the lockdown. He set the bar rather high with his church cross - pictures on 7 May, but don't be daunted - send in some photos.

Steve Fearnley. Wands based on those of Harry Potter's friends and enemies, made for my granddaughters. Creating involved carving, ebonising, pyrography - and woodturning. 10 to 14 inches long. It was hard work finding phoenix feathers and dragon's heartstrings to put in their core.
