While this might be a tad large for my 10ER... man I'd like to give it a shot!

He sure got a work out starting out until he got it round. Thanks for the link.

That was truly awesome thank you very much for sharing that link. I wonder how thin the shade was when he was finished for it to allow light to shine through it? Man that was a lot of wood wasted though.

Amazing. But what a pile of wood chips.

I like the idea of using the light to guage the thickness, cool idea! I believe the chips went to local agricultural types for mulch, or something like that.

I also was wondering how many of us would use a chainsaw as a lathe tool?

I wonder how many sandbags I'd have to pile on the 10ER base to have it stay still???:rolleyes:

I'm curious what he sprayed on it?

Since it is winter, sprayed it with kerosene so could get light and warmth
