Plugging a void
When turning rather rustic wood (lots of bark, cracks and knotholes) I often will encounter a major void, especially when the heartwoods begin to dry and shrink. The quickest way to fill these is actually with a piece of natural cork, like the ones that come from a wine bottle. It's flexible, fits snugly, and will accept both a stain and a finish. Last week I had a knothole fly out, and in two minutes I had it patched and ready to continue without waiting for glue to dry. Truth is, it looks like the original knot!

Turned back scratcher
In this photo tutorial, you'll see all the steps to make this two-piece project. The first piece is a basic spindle which is the handle. And the second piece is the scratcher head. They are connected using mortise and tenon joinery.
