Intro: How to Make a Wood Pestle and a Mojito

I made this project on my homemade drill lathe.

STEP 1: I Begun With a Scrap Spruce Piece

I cut it to size with my miter box and a saw

STEP 2: I Used the Lathe to Round Over the Piece

STEP 3: I Used Several Wood Turning Gouges to Shape the Piece

STEP 4: I Cut the Piece Off the Lathe With a Hand Saw

STEP 5: I Wood Burned the Word Mojito on the Piece

STEP 6: Time to Make the Cocktail

I added 5 mint leaves

STEP 7: I Added Two Spoonfuls of Brown Sugar

STEP 8: I Add the Juice of Half Lime

STEP 9: I Gently Crashed the Leaves With the Pestle

This way the mint's flavour gets releases

STEP 10: I Added the Ice

STEP 11: I Added the Rum

STEP 12: I Filled With Soda Water and My Mojito Was Ready!

STEP 13: Cheers!
