Using Up Leftover Pieces of 3/4" Boards

[W.Y.]

Had some ends of boards left over from some other jobs so glued them together and turned them into a platter.
They were 3/4" thick at the start and wound up at about 3/8" thickness in the platter.. The platter is 11.75" diameter. That is about the maximum that can be turned on my little Jet 1220 mini lathe
There is a combination of beech and walnut and birch in the platter.
It actually has a high shine but my night time picture taking doesn't show it much.

Here is the top

And here is the bottom

Very nice. Did you actually grab that little bottom with a chuck?

Very nice. Did you actually grab that little bottom with a chuck?

No . I used a vacuum chuck on the inside to turn the outside and the foot.

 

[JimB]

That explains it. Just another piece of equipment I don't have.
