Really nice work!!! Did any body else notice that there were TWO(2) bowels in the pictures???? The first picture was a different one from the rest. It has a thicker top band and a very different curve. Is the first one a practice piece?

David, I believe that you have added to the Magic of the Dark Side.
Absolutely incredible work, I'm in awe.

David,

That is just amazing work/artistry. And I'm still struggling to get a plain ol' bowl turned without messing up. Wow that is beautiful. :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Man, what can I say that has not been said. That is one the coolest things I have seen in a very long time. Seriously, you deserve all of the praise.

 

[NCTurner]

Well done, nice job not smearing the Bloodwood into the Holly during finishng. Any tricks to pass along on that front?

Beautiful work: simple, yet profound. :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap A lot of folks will be scratching their heads over that.

No words, Just :notworthy::notworthy::notworthy:

 

[Tar Heel]

In looking at the how to pics, I noticed a HF 34706 lathe in the background. Assuming this was turned on that lathe, this is proof positive that the skill and talent of the craftsman is far more important than the tool. used in creating a work of art. Unfortunately, a lot of folks apparently don't understand that.

Wow,

Simply Amazing! Beautiful, Great, Grand, Awesome, Brilliant!

So Did you turn all the wood inside? I mean I saw this article about a guy cutting out the middle of his pieces to be able to make more bowls from the material?

Thanks for posting such a beautiful piece!
