I am beyond impressed you turned those on a drill press! Also a little terrified at the thought, but then lathes are pretty scary too.

Thanks Dieter! I feel that a drill press is actually pretty safe, they are usually pretty solid machines. It was scarier when I was cutting the blocks on my miter saw than when using the drill press.

By the way, I got inspired by these videos on Youtube, some are using lathes and some drill presses but great tips in there:
