Christmas Ornament

[Fabrickator]

This past week I made a Xmas ornament. My local plastic vendor had some nice renants of 1/4" and 3/4" purple and green rod and some nice 1/2" clear twisted stock.

I used the mill/rotary table w/ angle plate to make a green octogon hub w/ holes for the tenons. I turned all of the rod tenons and tapers on the lathe.

Fun to work with plex on occasion.

I like it. How does that stuff machine? Looks like hard plastic.

My bad, tried to make it larger for you and Blamo. Could you please load it again. I promise I'll leave it alone this time. Sorry.

It machines nicely and is easy to polish. Holding tight tolerances is a bit of a challange. I also picked up a 2" X 6 X 2" thick clear slab that I'm going make some dice out of.

that looks great. The only thing you need now is to figure a way to light one and it would work on top of the tree as well.
NICE JOB.

That's pretty cool. Kinda looks like something Luke Skywalker might of had on the key chain for his Delta fighter. Mike
