EYE Glass Stand the MULTITASKER Woodturning with Sam Angelo

The challenge for May 1st, 2025 is to turn something that would hold glasses. I considered this topic and made what I call a multitasker. As seen in the photos, it holds a ring, a watch, my cell phone The challenge for May 1st, 2025 is to turn something that would hold glasses. I considered this topic and made what I call a multitasker. As seen in the photos, it holds a ring, a watch, my cell phone and other small items that often clutter up the island in my kitchen. A Real Multitasker!!!!
There is a lot going on in this video: spindle turning as well as face plate turning with some interesting chucking methods. Thanks Tomislav for this idea.
Please check out the links below for the other three Turners and see what they come up with.
