After this bowl was roughed out, two large cracks opened radially from the pith area. In the spirit of "waste not want not" I decided to finish the bowl and present it to some of my west coast co-workers as a repository for their favorite food: peanuts!
The bowl was finished using Waterlox and wet sanded to 2000 grit (with lemon oil as the lubricant). It was then coated with Arborwax and polished using a high-speed buffer.
