Lighted Electric Peppremill

[SteveNelson46]

It took me a whole day to come up with a design for this project and another day to finish it. The kit was ordered from the Woodcraft website. At first it seemed a little top heavy but after finishing it...well it's still a little top heavy but it sure came out nice. I'll probably make a couple more for Christmas presents.

The blank is a glue-up of several different kinds of wood and then cut diagonally at about a 30 degree angle to make a 3" square about 7" long. I used my lathe to bore the 1.75" hole almost all the way through and then used the lathe again to cut a plug to fit in the open end so it would mount in the Carvewright's rotary jig.
