Tri Corner - Trifecta bowl

I turned this in Jan this year. Was a bowl design I had in my head for about 3 years after watching a YouTube video. When I finally started turning in 2023 I went for it. I don't remember how many lamination's it took to make but it was well over 100. The goal was to have a block that went from dark to light and had 3 ascents meeting in each corner. Here are a couple photos as well as a YouTube video of this build that has 1.1 million views.
I made 2 of these, one with Padauk as the dominant color and one with Purple Heart. They each took about 50hrs to make and have a UV inhibitor finish.

Beautiful, well done. A challenging project that you conquered admirably. It is brave to present such hi-res close ups for scrutiny but they validate your quality of work.

Great work, I have seen your video on YouTube a couple of times and I am impressed with your precision and attention to detail. It is impressive the finishing, oftentimes, at least with a lot of the local Alaskan woods, it is hard to get a perfect finish without any scratches, especially up close in the light. The grain in the last picture of the bottom doesn't appear to have any scratches of any size.
