Creating a Spindle

I am creating a spindle upon which I can finish out the model for my egg-shaped containers. I bought two "lazy susans" which I will mount onto plywood. Took them down to the studio today after getting some more copper fittings for a plumbing job that I am doing on my own home. It's a good thing too. That painting I had hanging had come loose of its dowel, and so I had to go get a large sheet of styro-foam to tape it to a sized piece of that and cover it back up with plastic.

I know that the lazy susans are a cheap short-cut towards a more sophistcated lathe type bearing, but I don't intend to turn it at any notable speed I can't produce with my hand.

Pictures to follow on the next entry.
