Immediately to the right of the entrance door is the bakery, or at least its sales portion. (Because space is limited in the main part of the store, most of the prep space for the service departments is located downstairs. I imagine this must be a nightmare for the employees...) It's interesting seeing these departments with windows to the street right beyond the cases.
Another view of the radius turning fixture. The bar protruding to the right is a short handle to control the cuts a bit better. The dial indicator on the left is there so that I can move the cross slide longitudinally in increments. I found .020 in. to be about right. Once the curvature I wanted was cut I went back over the surface with a bit of #320 grit 'wetordry' sandpaper to buff out any remaining tool marks.
Turning Tide. Not often the high tide schedule coincides perfectly with sunset when on the Bay of Fundy. Add the possibility of cloud cover blocking any beautiful light from shining through on those few select nights. But when light, subject, and the moment agree, the camera tells a beautiful story.

"....The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity..."

As part of the required course knowledge pupils need to be able to outline the process involved in taking a square wooden blank and preparing it for turning between centres. These pictures depict that process chronologically.
Stage 1 * Preparation of wooden blank. Cut to size. Sand square. Mark across diagonals. Centre punch the centre point. Use spring dividers to mark circumference. Repeat on other end.
Stage 2 * Plane off corners down to circumference line. This takes cross section from square to octagon. This reduces force on cutting toll in initial prep of blank. Mount between fork [driven] centre and dead [or live ] centre at tailstock end. Apply grease a dead centre end. apply force from tailstock end to force fork into material at driven end. Adjust toolstock height to suit. Check for clearance.
Stage 3 * Roughout using scraper to diameter. Use combination of gouges and skew chisels to add beads and other decorative detailing as required. Ensure spindle speed is appropriate for material and cross section under consideration. Obey all safety instructions.

These are wood turnings I picked up at an Opportunity Shop in Mount Gambier South Australia. Turned by a chap called R. Blackall probably around 1998 to 2000.

A diner staffed by recovering addicts, I'm not so sure it's still a going concern.
This picture shows BR Austerity 2-8-0 No.90733 with a service from Keighley to Oxenhope. The railway is part of the Keighley And Worth Valley Railway and the picture was taken on the 29th August 2016.
The idea of depicting a model turning the tables on the photographer has been in my mind since seeing Barry J Holmes' shot of Monica Bellucci. Since I was trying to get away from the grafitti around our location for this meet-up I decided to try it out. Jojo is better at this than Ms Bellucci since JoJo got her aim right without drenching me or the camera.
Which was nice.
Strobist info: SB900, camera half left, pointing at the model's 2 o'clock. SB800 into a reflector, camera right at model's 9 o'clock. Strobes triggered by CLS.

For complex turning forms, casting a giant cylinder would waste a ton of material. I turned a cone shape out of some cheap urethane foam, then made a vac form pull with .060" styrene. This will be filled with urethane resin then turned to the proper final shape on my lathe.
