Mahogany Heart Shaped Crotch Bowl

Mahogany Heart Shaped Crotch Bowl

Well sort of.....didn't have control on how this crotch piece was originally cut. One of the legs of the Y was cut off short and at a goofy angle, so just had to guess at adjustments as I proceeded to round the piece, to get them as close as possible. Overall, kind of satisfied will the outcome. Once turned wet mahogany, light 5/16" rim thickness tapered down to a light 1/4" thru the heartwood sides & bottom. Bark taken off and burned some decorative lines. Sanded to 400 grit and 3 coats of tung oil and then 3 step buff & wax.
