Red Gum hollow form (1 of 2)

Pardon the terrible lighting--working on a better setup. This one is about 5 inches in diameter. I'm pleased with the wall thickness consistency, but I'll be working to go thinner next time. I have very little experience with hollow forms, but will be putting in some practice over the next months. Critiques welcome.
That's gorgeous. I love its simplicity. The finish appears to be perfect!
Thanks, Scott. The finish did turn out well on this one. I didn't get the wall thickness where I wanted it, so it's not very pleasing in hand--too heavy. Fun learning, though!
