Toru 6

Toru 6
Wood: Matai
Diam: 160 mm
Height: 45 mm
Finish: inside vessels lacquer, outside rust

This is the smallest of this multi axis series, which is only half the size of Toru 5. I decided to coat the entire outer surface with the rust this time to give some contrast to the Matai. I think it works quite well with this piece. I started this piece in February and thought it was about time to finish it. It is the same size as the one I demonstrated at Turn-fest earlier this year.

Thanks Guys, I love using the rust because you never quite know what the end result will look like.
Cheers,
Robbie

Robbie, it is a two person job to get a photo on the home page, and the timing doesn't always work out. Be patient, and it will get there! ;)
