Lathe craft -Eccentric oil lamps- for sale



These a called eccentric turnings. They are turned on a lathe by turning the top part in a straight position then off-setting the piece and turning the next part, then finally resetting the piece back to its original plane and finish turning the base. They all have 10 coats of polyurethane for a finish and they come with either a glass encased candle or a battery powered flicker lamp. In the first two pictured, the lamps are taken apart to show what is included.
