Maple Burl Brilliance

Sometimes you can’t make a magnificent piece of flashy maple burl even more breathtaking than it is … so you don’t bother. Sand it smooth, add a shiny finish, and attach rich, blackwood handles. This pin will be the first picked up and oohed over at markets. A steel rod runs through the barrel of the pin into each handle, and bearings at each end of the barrel ensure a smooth roll. Truly the Maple Burl Brilliance rolling pin is a functional piece of art that you use and proudly display. Made by me, Gary Legwold of the Minnesota Woodturning Association.
