OK now you got me wondering. How did you do it if not with a lathe?

Large round over bit in the router table and bench top belt sander to rough it out.

then clamp piece to work bench and hand sanded like polishing your shoes.

then smaller round ouver bit in the router table to round edges.
finally 2 in forner bit in drill press to hollow it out.
thn just finis hand sanding and natual wood stain and spray varithane to finish
