Rimu Rolling Pin
Katie Smith
Katie chose a piece of rimu that was part of the original house frame and had a multitude of nail holes. She decided to make a rolling pin as this had been one of the early turning
projects on the Aoraki Polytechnic woodturning course that she is currently undertaking. Katie loves to bake and would be lost without a rolling pin in her kitchen.
