>Yesterday I spend the day with some guys from canada and give them a demo how a vessel is made out of tigre caspi wood that I got from Jim King from Iquitos,they were really suprised to see how a vessel is made and hollow the inside,and shape the out side in such a short time (one hour more or less) they think this vessels take days to make well the finnishing is another matter, bur they left happy and maybe I got some more new turners on the making ?

>Looks a little like a lighter version of elm. What wood is that platter in the rough it's sitting on?

Saw the bloodwood crotch in your other post; you are fortunate to have access to such colorful wood.
