This is one of two pieces I managed to scavenge from a short I picked up at my local mulch yard (I have free run, all for the price of a soft maple burl hollow form).
Black locust, generally makes my favorite finished pieces. Yes, its hard, but I find the things I get when I'm don to be worth the extra effort.
Hollowed with my Rolly Munro articulated hollower on my Randy Privitt Monster articulated hollowing setup (I like articulation?)
This piece is 10 inches in diameter by 6 inches high and turned to about 1/4 of an inch thick. I left a little bit of a foot, I was concerned about how thin it seemed at the bottom.
Sanded to 400 till I decide if and/or what to finish it with.
