Shuttles

It has been a while since I made anything that wasn't for the house. These are shuttles for weaving, and I made them for Legacy Lane Fibre Mill, and this is what they do. I used mahogany and with a little glue and screws they should be strong enough to the job and light enough as not to be tire everyone out, as they have to be passed through many many times.

Also some of the wood working I have been doing has been building cupboards, some for appliances and others built-ins. They are from cabinet grade plywood, maple veneer with a 5 layer core, very stable and strong. I have many more to make and will show them off later.
