Woodturning - My Biggest and Definitely my Highest Turning !!
This was not my usual kind of turning, but I thought it was an interesting project to take on.
I was contacted by a firm who were doing restoration work to an old textile mill, Bridgehouse mill in Howarth, West Yorkshire. It is a listed building and dates back to the 18th century and at the highest point it had a turned finial that needed replacing. Since medieval times, pointed finials have been fitted to the apex of roofs, as they were thought to prevent the devil from sitting there!
It was made from Red Grandis Hardwood which is a high performing timber, with exceptional durability and perfect for external use. So lets hope the new finial lasts as long as the original!!
I needed to cut a large mortice to join the two pieces together and was kindly sent a couple of large forstner bits from Planet Plus Ltd, who stock a wide range of woodworking and woodturning tools, well worth checking them out...
