The Wasp Nest. A bowl made from wasp nest, resin on the lathe. Woodturning project. O.U.R.

I discovered this abandoned wasp nest outside my woodshop/garage a few months ago... I finally decided to do something with it. :) Fathom Total boat resin, a wasp nest and turned on the lathe.

Here are my commonly used tools/equipment:

- Lathe:
