Thanks for bumping! I was just thinking yesterday I needed to do so! I'm hopeful I'll be able to get one done, but new pup is consuming a LOT of shop time.

Oh, durn, that is spectacular!
Really love that design. Using the colors and textures to create visual interest with a simple cylinder shape takes it to the next level. 
So impressive, but don't the peppercorns fall through the holes? Chuck
That's really cool, Lou. did you insert a piece of clear tubing to make the mill body solid without having to fill in all the voids? ........ Jerry (in Tucson)
We have a contender !
Very well done Lou. Will be hard to not declare an early favorite!
the cholla was fitted with a clear tube so the corns don’t fall out
it’s also an added touch where the user can easily tell when it’s time to refill.
Wow….really like that cholla idea. Might have to steal that one 
Money!!!
Can do similarly with Banksia or even a super buggy blank!Wow….really like that cholla idea. Might have to steal that one
What is a super buggy blank
Peruse “buggy or Buggie” in wood for sale forum…for exampleWhat is a super buggy blank
Got it. Presents a little more of a challenge
