Hi Frank. When I see an ad for a business like this, my mind starts running wild thinking... what could I get you guys to do?
The turned verandah posts/door knobs/fishing rod handles etc are pretty obvious candidates, so I was just wondering what are some of the strangest things you've ever been asked to produce?

Given the price I was paying at Bunnings, BCF for chips and shaving etc - you should look into selling it for smokers, seriously - (except for me :evilgrin: )

Well Jeff. Today I'm cutting in half golf balls for a sculptor, In the past I've made quite a bit for them and some of the bits are like... WT :? So here's a quick list that comes to mind, Wooden bell, imitation bombs and nose cones for old aeroplanes at Tyabb, bullets for a blokes pool room, Vintage car parts, Oars, gummy dongas, Bocchi balls if that's how you spell it, proto type things such as moulds for dog bowls, air cleaner and snorkel parts for 4WD supplier, wobble boards for a personal trainer ....she even gave me a demo on there use.... YES she was HOT for all you curious types. Wheel spokes for wagon wheel,
crosses for deceased pets, Turned wine bottles for a winery . and yes a dildo for a very strange woman ...NO demo :shock:
I must say my job is interesting and I've met some very clever interesting people and made some great friends.

Wow. Now you've got me thinking!
Do you do finishing as well?
Say for example someone wanted to do run of fish dongers/priests, could you also do things like burn a logo into them and stain them?

Like this sort of thing
