SHOWOFF!! lol
Just one more in a line of very cool designs from you again! Was the reeding done as a seperate toolpath?

Do you make these as samples or for a specific customer? Where did the design come from?
The finishing looks great too...good job
(as always!)

Very,very nice work!

Nice piece - fun shapes, well balanced...

Like Jack, I'm especially impressed by the reeding. I'm guessing that was done with a small ballnose bit/3D toolpath, not a roundover bit right?

Inquiring minds want to know...

Thanks everyone,. The post is turned first and the reeding in done after, so yea, seperate tool path. It was cut with a 5" long side cutting roundover bit from Magante in Cal. I do test pieces in pine.

Jack, I am making these posts as samples. I would like to more of this sort of work in my shop so I am developing a line of posts, legs,pedistals, columns, moldings and whatever else the bot can do.
Here is what I have so far, http://cottagewoodworkers.ca/
