Outstanding job on that pepper mill, I got a lot out of it. I live making pepper mills all kinds of shapes. So far I haven’t gotten the turner point, now I’ll get one.😁 Thanks Mike
I enjoyed this turning very much. It’s interesting and fun watching you turn. Thanks for your expertise. Lots of steps in this project.
Fantastic job. Did you reverse sand the top section like you did the lower? Thanks Tim
Writing from New zealand, couple lazy hours atching this. very grateful, thanks. Loved your concise precision, mate, especially in getting radius curves right, highly instructional and helpful, think i’m almost ready to attack the peppermill kit I bought 2 years ago but never felt bold enough to make it.
Because there is a lot of steps and time invested, what would you sell the set for?
And what are the cost for the kits? Drill bit costs, sand paper, finish cloth and finishes?
