Method

Select long thin carrots. Peel and trim off the fat top part, making the whole carrot nearly the same in diameter from top to bottom. Once carrots are shaped, cut into paper-thin crosswise slices.
Peel turnips, then, with an apple corer or a knife, cut as many cylinders as you can from each turnip. Slice them into thin discs like the carrots.
