Bowl 23

Bowl 23

Well, its been awhile since I posted anything, just because I have not had the chance to turn. Work sure interferes with fun stuff doesn't it? Felt good to get some time to turn again though. This and the 4 entries that will follow over the next day or so are my entries for this years Big Island Woodturners show.

This is about 12 inches across. There is a fine silver wire just below the rim as an accent. Wood is a mildly spalted Mango. Finished with a coat of Waterlox and then buffed.

Always looking for opinions if anyone cares to comment. Good bad or otherwise!

Thanks everyone!

Dave
David, this just came up on my "Random Images." Not sure how I missed it when you posted it...
Very nicely done, and the silver accent is a delicate (and nice) touch.
I would like a full gloss or a more natural finish myself, otherwise, I have only compliments.
