A woodturner is a woodworker who makes one, or both, of two things: vessels or spindles. Vessels can be bowls, dishes, submarine propeller shaft bearings (they used to be made from a wood called Lignum Vitae, a strong, heavy, oily wood that lasted longer in the ocean than any metal did) and other useful items. Spindles can be porch columns, stair rail parts, Baseball bats...
