Things have been a bit busy on the turning front of late. All I have managed to produce has been the magic wand, complete with phoenix feather, in my header. Don’t ask me where I got the phoenix feather, it’s a secret.
The wand body is made from magical silver birch, and the handle from magical purple heart.
Obviously the magical source of the magical wood must remain secret.
The finish on both however is a very UN-magical paste wax.
Most of this was turned using a skew chisel. The feather is glued in using powdered unicorn horn.
I made a new handle for a tool I am currently manufacturing too, but that is nowhere near ready to use so probably will not find its way here.
