Default Maple Bowl
Big Leaf Maple 13" x 4 1/2" finished with antque oil
Undercut on the inner rim with a bead on the outside of the rim. I did the bottom with a simple foot to give the piece a bit of elevation.
also you can see a bit of an inclusion on the bottom next to the foot, I chose not to fill the void, it gives the piece a bit of character.

This will be the last of the turnings that I'll be able to do for a while.


Enjoy

John

YIKES!!! Look at all those awful bumps. Couldn't you at least take the time to sand them out?

Another beauty !

John I'm in awe. 3 superb pieces. The woods are really nice and the forms are spot on to my eye. I hope all goes well with the surgery and you'll be back with some more really impressive stuff soon.

Very well done!!! Just think what you will be capable of once you get your eyes fixed. Good luck with the surgery.

I figured your last bowl would mean you were doing some flat work for a while. After reading the other posts, I see that is not the case. Superb looking bowl, and good luck under the knife.

Cheers,

Mike

Thanks all, for the kind words ...

I'm not exactly looking forward to tomorrows surgery, but ... I've got my fingers crossed that all will turn out well.

John
