Five Quick and Easy Turning Finishes • Whether you’re finishing spindles, bowls or treenware, here are some topcoat options you may have on hand already.

English Garden Bench • Mortise-and-tenon construction ensures that this classic bench will weather the test of time and Mother Nature gracefully in your yard or garden.

Mobile Lathe Stand • Give your mini lathe a solid foundation with this simple, weighted rolling base. It’s built from thrifty home center lumber.
