The Chalice
The Blackwood is put on the lathe. A tenon was made to hold the wood in the chuck.
Measured marks were made for the different sections.
Shaping the lid.
Shaping the body.
Detail of the lid, still attached.
Sprayed with clear gloss varnish, highlighting the beautiful grain of the Blackwood.
The finished Chalice after the lid was separated and the Chalice body hollowed.
Finished lid and Chalice after three coats of varnish.
The ‘Chalice in the Palace’.
“The Chalice in the palace and the brew that is true”… a bit of humour from a favourite movie.

My garden is full of delights! It fills the senses with beauty, color and wonder. It helps me to understand beautiful truths about God, the Creator of heaven and earth.
