Just a small Red Oak potpourri pot. It's about 2.5 inches high by 4 inches in dia. A couple coats of AO and beal buffed. I got big shoulders so let me know what you think.

Looks fine to me. Where did the top come from? Also learned how to spell medullary, what a day.

Thanks for the kind words guys. I still have a few more pieces to turn from a big red oak tree a friend had to cut down in his yard. I normally don't like turning oak because I can never seem to get it cut without a lot of tear out. This piece cut very smooth. I'm not sure if it's the wood or if I am getting better. This one is going to the guy that gave me the wood. I have 2 or 3 bowls drying now.

Steve I got the tops from Craft Supply if I remember correctly.

Thanks again Steve
