Making Multi-axis Weed pots

This is a fun and simple project to experiment with multi-axis turning. These weed pots are miniature versions of the large vases I show in my multi-axis vase and spout off vase demos. They are turned using many of the same concepts, without the conplexity of having to hollow out a vessel. As an added plus, they can be done on almost any size lathe. Optionally, this demo can also cover regular weed pots, which are are a great exercise for those new to turning as a practice in spindle work and help in creating shapes and forms that are pleasing to the eye.

Turning an Offset Bowl

This bowl is turned on two different axis which results in the bowl being offset from the rim. The demo shows how I use a stacked tenon to achieve the offset look to the bowl.
