Had an itch to work on the lathe so I decided to make a bell.  Didn't want to make a scale one because sound does not scale well.  Started out with a 4" cylinder of bronze.  Then it was rough machined, filed, sanded and sanded and sanded...  (similar to making the side rods).  Well, it looks and sounds excellent. 

It will be nickel plated later along with the rods.
