I do like challenges such as the upcoming Ornament Challenge. However, this video is from a challenge from the Woodturners Worldwide online symposium. The challenge was an egg turned on one day of the symposium – all while also watching the great sessions. It has taken me a while to produce the video.

These are deviled eggs but my granddaughter called them avocados. Either way, they require two split turnings – one for the outer egg and one for the yoke.

At least the big end of the egg resembles a hemisphere. The yoke is a sphere. So, I relied on the octagon method for both with adaptation.

A piece of paper sandwiched in the glue joint allowed the two pieces of wood to separate for each component.

Then split the pieces and glue the half yoke to the half egg.

Remember – The Christmas Ornament Challenge rapidly approaching. See www.OrnamentChallenge.com

Enjoy!
