This video is also posted to YouTube, Vimeo, and FaceBook. Best right here at As Wood Turns.

For this project, I’m preparing for a fiend’s daughter to come have a first experience with woodturning.

This is a small 5″ vase from semi-dry olive wood finished with beeswax and mineral oil. A small glass insert protects the wood from moisture (somewhat).

What projects do you think are good for a teenage beginner?

Enjoy!
