Here is the child:

Very interesting form on this one - not sure I have seen one before! Love the wood! Great spalting! Looks like you have some curl in there as well! Another good looking finish! Sure looks thin! Must be light as a feather!

Nice work Hilel! Thanks for sharing!

[Kenneth Whiting]

Oh wow. This one is beautiful. I was wondering what you meant when you said you would make a HF, and how that would help show the spalting and figure. Got it now, turn it over and display the beauty. Great job.

[Bill Bolen]

What a unique form and a great way to show off the character of this wood...Bill...

[John Keeton]

Wow!! That is some beautiful wood, and a great way of maximizing the artistic nature of the piece.

[Hilel Salomon]

Thanks for the kind words. It's very thin and very light. I used Randy Privett's articulated system on it and it was nice enough inside so that I didn't bother trying to sand it.
Randy's system allows even a hack like me to make hollow forms.

Regards, Hilel.

pretty wood and nice finish.

[Jeff Nicol]

Hilel, I like the squat shape of this one! It really shows off the wood and the spalting! I will put it in my to do pile also!

I have been building steady rests and I keep thinking of you and the arms and things for bowls and platters, after Christmas I will get at them.

Great form,

Jeff

[Bernie Weishapl]

Hilel that is a beauty. I do like the form and the wood is outstanding. Well done.

[Curt Fuller]

Hilel, that's a remarkable combination of turnings to come out of a single piece of wood. Now they'll need to stay together.

[Ryan Baker]

Ahh ... Now the "mushroom shaped hollow form" comment makes sense. It certainly shows off that impressive spalting.
