Nice work Steve - I am sure it is appreciated! Any dimensions you can throw at us? Finish used? Looks pretty good!

I've seen this piece and I like it - very nice job! Perhaps you may shame your friend into the spinny world.... naw, but it's still very nice!

Steve the size is aprox 10 x 10 x2. The wings are just under 1/8 thick, and the bowl is just over 1/8. Finish is multi coats shellac, followed by 4 or 5 coats lacquar. Lacquar knocked down with steel wool then waxed and buffed.
