Here's another piece I meant to post a few days ago and forgot.

Mahogany, about 4 x 6.5, with a buffed DO finish. It looked a little too "plain jane" so I tried spicing it up a bit by inserting sycamore plugs. Used a Oneway Drill Wizard to drill the holes opposite one another and at graduated positions.

Nicely done, Mark. I keep thinking of dice (as in gambling) when I look at this piece. I could see some fancy Yahtzee cups in the future. ;)
 
Very neat, I like that :thumb:

How is the Oneway Drill Wizard to use?

I remember when it came out, I thought "Neat, I wonder how useful it really is.... :dunno: "

Cheers!

Stu,
It's totally boring.:eek::p

Actually it's very easy to set up and use, IF you (1) buy a drill that you can dedicate to it, saving yourself that much setup time--I use a cheapo drill that I already had lying around, and (2) use sharp bradpoint bits.

Of course, the Drill Wizard presupposes an indexing system on your lathe.
