Here is my latest green turning which I would like to share. I call them boat bowls because I can't really think of another name for them. The two are made from oak. Three views: From the top showing the inside. The bottom showing the outside and from the side showing the curvature. They were turned about 9 months ago and left to see if they would crack. They didn't and I finished them off yesterday. Two coats of lemon oil. I say coats but it was more of a soak.
They were turned from a wet oak log. I have made quite a few of these from various woods and I'm amazed that they don't crack as often as I would have thought.
