This year at the Sydney Royal Easter Show I submitted a couple of pieces into the wood turning competition.
There were two categories that I entered into, one for a solid turned item, and the second for a segmented turned item.
The rules states that I am only allowed to enter one piece for each category.
This one was entered into the segmented category and is made from a LVL board. I had been given an off cut from one of the members of the wood turning club that I am a member off and it was suggested that the board be cut at 100mm lengths then rotated 90 degrees for glue up. I also added another piece of some hardwood that I had laying around. There was an option to name the entry and I gave it a name of LVL Fruit Bowl.
The size is about 240mm wide by 80mm high.

This next one was made from some camphor laurel that I was fortunate enough to get from one of the members of the forum, Arron.
This one is just a small piece about 180mm wide and 75mm high. The photos seem a little lighter then the actual piece. I have been reduced to taking photos from my mobile as my camera no longer works.

I did not get any prizes as part of the competition. :U Truth is I was not really expecting anything, just wanted to do something for a bit of fun. The plan at this stage is to once again enter a couple of pieces for the 2016 Sydney Royal Easter Show.
As always all comments are welcome BAD and good.
