My second spindle turning (first one broke). It's a spinning top. walnut. It's kind of wonky when it spins.



Constructed box made of cherry wood, for the lid I used a piece of firewood I found.



Cherry again. MY PINHOLE CAMERA!

2nd negative with a 15 minute exposure.



Print from the 1st negative, a self-portrait.



Print from the 2nd negative. Scooter sleeping on his chair. he's the tiny blob that's hard to make out.



A pair of plugs I made out of basswood. the colour was a lot lighter/nicer before but I coated them with olive oil.
