Spalted Red Gum Bowl

[Gary Conklin]

This is a bowl I have been working on side by side with another project I am doing, the other has some large craks that need filling so during drying I have been doing this. Spalted Red Gum, sanded to 400 finished with Mineral Oil and buffed. CC's welcomed.

Gary - real nice bowl - beautiful wood! How big is it? Looks like 14" diameter in the first photo! Nice work!

[Gary Conklin]

You just about nailed it Steve just over 12".

Great job Gary! That Gum spalted up nicely...and I like the stepped rim.

[Keith Burns]

Excellent bowl Gary. Nice rim treatment and nice form.

[Bernie Weishapl]

That is a beauty Gary. Really like that wood. Well done.

[Gary Conklin]

Thanks guys, aside from having the grain centered a bit better any thing need improved?

[Kenneth Whiting]

That's a good looking big 'ol bowl.
