Woodturning - Virus Model as Quarantine Project
I hope everyone is doing fine during this time of social distancing.
As all of the news are full with corona related topics, you also stumble upon these typical virus images. So i tried to recreate one of them on my lathe. The sphere is made of Plum wood and the little "arms" are in Wenge, Padouk and Amaranth.
Everyone take care and stay healthy.
