Ambrosia maple

[Charlie Reals]

I bought this blank a year ago with another just like it. I turned the first one but let this blank sit. Hmmmmm , never thought to take the shrink wrap off. Oh man there was fungus amungus. The blank was driping with black goo lol. I soaked it in X14 then scraped the gunge off. turned it rough and soaked for 3 days in DNA.
It is now 10 x3 1/2" with 3 coats of AO. I will beale buff it.
Any comments welcome

Charlie I like it, simple form but the wood abounds with character.

Amazing what a little neglect and mother nature can do given enough time!!:D Great looking piece of wood, Charlie, and you turned a nice bowl from it.

Very nice. Reminds me of a calabash bowl which is a personal favorite. Great looking piece of wood.
