Thanks :)

It's the sycamore bowl. It feels heavy enough that you could drop kick it into next week and when you caught up it would just be sitting there waiting.

Ah so if you set it outside at a gathering the wind won't blow it away, nice!

This is the black cherry bowl. Not as heavy as the sycamore bowl but pretty chunky. This is the one that caused me lots of problems with catches...


Ooh that's a nice color!! I like the natural notches. If it's small enough, it would be perfect for an artist to lay their paint brush across LOL

My contractor is finally coming today but in the afternoon, so I have time this morning to go to the trails for a nice long walk!! I got up early and sprayed 4 of the bushes that has a bug that specifically eats those bushes and kills them, and then did some weeding. I'm sick of taking care of this landscaping because it's constantly needing my attending to.

I think you could set the sycamore bowl outside in a tornado and it wouldn't blow away

I love the colors in black cherry. I have a few more pieces of it. The first piece I made I gave to a guy who helped me out with the delivery of my new lathe. The second piece I tried to make exploded because I made a silly mistake and before I even clocked what I'd done half the bowl was the other side of the room. This is the third piece.

I have a hefty chunk of it in the basement that's going to become a big plate for my wife. It's going to be something like 18-20" across, it's hard to be sure until I measure more accurately to figure where I'm going to mount the faceplate. It's an effort to lift it. There's another piece in the garage that's the other half of the log, although that piece is slightly bigger where the log got cut somewhat off center.
