mallee and gidgee decanter

[hughie]

This came from a rather flatish burl hence the shape and the stopper is gidgee. Finished with DO and Wipe-on-Poly 6"x6"
The brown colour was a challenge to get to come out ok.

That is an object of absolute beauty and looks so tactile. I think the shape is as near perfect as any human can get it.I would be chuffed to bits if it graced my sideboard. In other words, I think it`s OK.
Let`s see more, please.

They walk out the door by them selves it seems. LOML seems to have no trouble in getting rid of them :lol: :lol:

Yes they are hard, but then just about all the good turning timber here fits that category here. So thats all I know :lol:
OK some are worse than others, I tend to shy away from Burls [Burrs] off long dead trees unless I am desparate. These sort of burls are muchharder than the norm.

It usually turns into a body and bone shaking experience that lasts an hour or so, I stagger off to work to recuperate :lol:
