Some of the things I have made. Lamps, clocks, pen rests, oil lamps,
I have made wooden boats ornaments, biplane and submarine pen rests, Street lamppost floor lamp, Lamps from moped parts (mainly rear shock and other parts).
I have made lots of pen rests and pen trays. I collected and still have a collection of fountain pens. I also made ink blotters, inkwells etc on my lathe when I had one.
Our son in law is an Arsenal fan and I made a pen and a pen holder with a wooden arsenal canon for his birthday present.

Love the vintage-style clocks!

Thanks. The black and white one was my first art deco style. My wife thinks the other art deco style is the best one I made. She loves it.
V nice!!

At least you haven't made a wooden plane lamp......

I thought the suspension lamp was shown, but it isnt. The silver one in second pic is the first lamp I made with a moped rear shock and a VW air filter. Base is a Yamaha engine head. I turned it into a touch lamp.
