Great to see something so different....do you know what the heiroglyphs mean?

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

Thank you for all your kind comments.  Les, who asked the question - no, I didn't research the hieroglyphics beforehand...hopefully it's not something rude!!  Regards, Tony

That is an amazing amount of post turning work. The gloss of your paintwork is worthy of a Downing Street door.
