Here's the product of todays fun. This is some more of the wood that I got the other week at NC Wood. It's about 5½" in dia. and about 3" tall, the walls are about ¼" I am not 100% happy with it because I got a fair bit of tear-out on the end-grain areas due to the punkiness of the wood. I tried everything that I knew to remedy it, but still couldn't eliminated all of it.
It's finished with BLO and wax, buffed out.
Normally I sign the bottom of bowls that I've made, but my wife noticed that I didn't need to on this one, as it naturally has my initial in it already
Either that or the wood was trying to tell me it wanted to be a lidded box (a little to late for it to bring that up :lol.
Thanks for looking comments and critiques always appreciated.
