shallow maple bowl

[mike fuson]

Neat looking little piece of maple with some ambrosia in it. Might make a good candy dish or something. Measures 1 1/2 by 11 1/2. Shellawax finish. Thanks for looking.

That has a very nice form. Good job.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Now that's different! Interesting form that really shows off the wood! Would make for a great candy dish or some type of center piece on a table. Nice work Mike! Thanks for sharing!

[Belton Garvin]

Simplistic...but really shows the beauty of the wood. Nice Choice of design.

Mike, Not as fancy as most of your stuff, but the finish and wood are spot on! Looks like a good bowl for everyday use.

Mike, thats a great form. I like the way it rolls up around the edge to the rim, very cool looking!!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Mike...Nicely done! The flowing form.....the finish...the wood....Nicely done Sir! My wife would see that form and say it begs to be held and touched!

Nice, but I must admit - the first thing that came to my mind was....

ashtray :o and I don't even smoke.

Great job anyway - love the wood, form, and finish.

[Toney Robertson]

Very nice as always.

Nice execution and wonderful photo.

I just need to save this post so that I can copy it to any other time I comment about one of your pieces. :)

It does resemble an ashtray, albeit a very beautiful one. Once again, Mike, you have shown what a good eye and wonderful touch you have at the lathe.

Like Ken said, that piece just begs to be held. Very nice.

[Don Eddard]

Nice job Mike. Great wood and I really like the rounded rim. It looks like it wants to be picked up.

I keep coming back and taking a look at this maple bowl.. It is very eye catching. It all seems to work together -- wood, color, design, the smooth shape, and your presentation.. paul
