After a much needed break from tiling and brick laying I jumped on the lathe to begin making miniature chimneys.
The chimneys were simply machined out of chemiwood, an easy material to work with on the lathe and easy to get a good finish on it. By chance, it also has a grain which works perfectly for terracotta on this scale. I have to do a total of around 16, though some have been moulded and cast as seen above.
