How to Make a Rolling Pin

Description:

Earlier this week, my neighbor gave me a chunk of poplar and I decided to turn it on the lathe. I didn’t really have a plan before I went into this turning, I just removed different areas of wood that I felt needed to be removed. I really enjoy turning wood on my lathe every now and then because it is a more relaxing form of woodworking. You don’t have to worry about tight miters or getting the perfect finger joints, you just keep on turning. Anyway, when finishing projects that are going to be around food, I always use a food safe finish. A few weeks back I made a cutting board and I just used some of the leftover finish for this roller.
