>all the turning blanks with voids. You sure can turn air better than I do so how about next time giving me the starter blanks. You know us young guys need to turn solid pieces to get confidence before turning blanks with 50% wood content.
Excellent looking bowl. Have you turned all the bigleaf maple you had delivered last spring? We are going to Hawaii in January so I am not planning on visiting your neck of the woods this winter. However, Sandy may have a different idea.

>I still have quite a bit of the Oregon maple burl. Most of it's rough turned and waiting for me to put it back on the lathe.
Have a good time in Aloha Land...Take your snorkle and fins.

>Hi Wally,
Very nice! I like the shape and voids in the wood. It gives the impression of a jug that's been recovered at an archeological site!
Thanks for the pic, it's always nice to see what you've been working on.

>Thanks Joe....Actually, it's a copy of the style that Michael Peterson used to do. His turned and carved pieces are way past that now.
