Spalted Red Oak

[Nathan Hawkes]

Here's another natural edge bowl that I finally got around to getting a photo of. Spalted red oak. This one's a little over 15" in diameter, and about 9-10" tall at the wings. Turned to 1/4" thick, sanded to 600, then antique oil finish.

[William Hutchinson]

You've crafted a piece that well displays the natural character of the wood, nice job.

Nice looking bowl. Oak is not my favorite stuff to spin due to the heatishness associated with turning it, but the end result is really nice.

Nate that is a great looking bowl. Wood is really nice.

[Eric Jacobson]

That's beautiful. And I thought I wasn't a fan of oak. Well done!
