    Thumbs up Curly Sycamore

    I did not get a chance to turn this today but was able to get a few pictures of the curl like Jeff requested. I trued up the blank yesterday and reapplied the wax coat just in case I do not get to work on it for a couple days. Right now it looks like a cheese round More to follow when I get to work on it I still have no idea on what shape it will be

    Re: Curly Sycamore

    That's gonna be a beautiful bowl/HF. Doesn't it turn like butter, a big difference from the Am. Elm :lol: :lol:
    As soon as I get the dang hutch out of my shop I would like to give my hunk a spin. Did you check the MC of it, by any chance???

    :-D Nothing left to do but smile, smile, smile :-D

    Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

    Heard from a client..."If I had your tools and experience...I could do it myself"

    Buy my MM it is 22% MC. I hope to shot a video file when I start to turn it. I still need to finish one other project first and deside on what it will look like. I may just wing it

    Nick, you should see curl throughout the entire chunk. I'm so glad there's no pith. Looking forward to watching the noodles fly in the video
