Been working on ornament globes. The blue and green ones are Maple, the red and yellow are Cherry burl. The one in front is Tasmanian Blackwood. The finial/icicle is Ebony that I made for another globe but thought it was too small. I think it will work better on the red globe.

Box elder, 6" finished with Myland's. You can't see it, but it has a bit of quilting.

Well.....for those waiting to see what I made with the apple wood. Apparently a lot of shavings and a piece for the wood stove. I tried gluing the piece multiple times but it just wasn't to be.
On a positive note my wall thickness is much better!

Phil, one like this may be able to be glued back together. The problem is clamping it. this is where the stretch film comes in very handy.

Cut it in half and mount it to a shelf, hang it on the wall.

This is another cherry that I finished today. 12” diameter. I roughed 8 bowls out of a partial trunk that a friend gave me. Tried and true Danish. Will buff when cured.

Couple of pieces went flying when it hit the concrete floor. I did try to see if it would match back up. Thanks for the idea though.

Met a guy today who does logging for a living. He also has a mill he plays with on weekends. He told me today I could go there and grab all the walnut, sycamore and other pieces that I wanted. Hopefully will go this weekend!

Yes

I don't know what to call it, but I had a knarly cherry burl and didn't know what to do with it. As you can see it had a lot of holes in it so had to make light cuts.

Nice job. That's an interesting piece of wood. The twist gives it even more character.
