Every time I look at your work I feel there is something missing in my life
Yup, you need to get wood

Absolutely beautiful, Bob, both the grain / tone / finish you’ve achieved and the shape - I love the slight taper - seems to fit the 50s vibe of the Garrard perfectly 
Rhombus used well lovely stuff
Anyone any idea what the timber is here:
It’s fairly old, and when I first planed off the outer layers, it was almost as dark as walnut, it lightened a bit over the 24hrs before I took that photo
Elm?
Wood ?

You appear to be rooted in the assumption that it’s from a tree.
You can cedar grain!
I don’t think it is a Plane tree
Planetary.
