Now for something competely different

[Bodrighy]

Well different for me :lol:

A bowl...no bark, no holes just a simple bowl. 10" dia. 3 1/2" deep with rolled lip in spalted beech. %mm thick overall with small foot and detailed recess. Finished in wax but not highly buffed.

That`s a lovely bowl Pete.

A very pleasing design.

It`s also made from a smashing piece of timber, did you spalt it yourself?

Thanks,

When we move back down to Cornwwall there was a 10' log lying n the undergrowth that I was going to cut up for firewood but once I got back into it the ends were naff but the rest pretty solid so I have dried it out and made a few things from it. Got one or two pieces left.

Don't worry Paul, I am sure that I will continue doing holy turning. Somewhat limited using just a Jet mini so have a pile of wood awaiting work. Just need to sell enough to get a decent lathe.

I had to make some hairsticks in a dark wood for someone recently for them to add silver bits to.Broke my heart but I had to get some long pen blanks off ebay. Mind you 15 180mm blanks for 4.50 inc P&P wasn't too bad. Still went against the grain
