A few new friends

A couple ones that i have been working on all about 6 inch round first birch, second maple, third white oak.

[David E Keller]

Nicely done. Great shine on all of them. I love the figure in that maple piece.

[bob svoboda]

I like them all, Mike. I especially like the form on the Maple.

[Jon McElwain]

The feathering on the maple is cool - almost has an alabaster look to it. Any chance you would post a profile photo of that one?

Grain usage on the oak is attractive - I think this one is my favorite.

Looks like quite a collection in the background there too....

[Steve Vaughan]

Like 'em all but especially the maple one.

[Tim Thiebaut]

Very nice that maple came out beautiful!

[John Keeton]

Nice trio, Mike! The maple piece is the clear winner on form and wood IMO.

[Jon McElwain]

Forgot to ask, is that a spray lacquer finish or something else?

[Roger Chandler]

Nice forms on all 3...........maple is very nice!

[Michael James]

All nicely done. Finish on these look perfect! Keep em coming.

All are nicely done Mike, but that maple one is on the top of my list..

[charlie knighton]

very nice.....

[mike caruso]

So funy i look at the maple and think not much but beauty is in the eye of the something, please the finish is just a rattle can poly try it go slow mist it then sand it then do it allover, not the best i will try the lacqure and buff soon

[Bernie Weishapl]

Mike I do like them all but the maple is my favorite.

[mike caruso]

Thanks John!! i see you work someday maybe me, i drive down back roads on cape cod not many left, and look for the most narly cut offs in fire wood piles, they chase me off mostly, but i grabed that one and when i turned it, it did not pop ! as it gets older the grain gets more pronounced and it is starting to look swell, i see much more pop in the white oak piece you would have to see it in person

[Steve Schlumpf]

Mike - nice work on all three of these! They each have their own character and you should be happy with your results!

[Jim Burr]

I'm on the maple bandwagon Mike. Good looking lot.

[Jon Nuckles]

+1 on the maple. I'm partial to that form and the wood itself is very interesting. Very nice looking finish for a spray can poly. I just tried to spray shellac and have been spending the last few days trying to fix the mess I made of them.
