Found this at a yard sale for a dollar. Was covered in heavy dark varnish didn’t look good at all. Put it on my lathe to clean it up. There was beauty under all the stuff that was caked on it.

That looks incredible. Great find.

How did you hook it up to your lathe and find the center?

Losing fingers since 1969

I think it is Teak I am not the best at identifying some types of wood though. I used a compass trick to find the center.

Nice find,looks good.
