That is the intended use anyhow! River Birch cut from my front yard a few years ago after an ice storm damaged that beautiful tree. 9x4 with 3 coats of satin wop just to seal the soft grain away from all that butter. Slanted the rim a bit on this one also.

Bill has been busy!!! Very nice bowl, and the wood is awesome. Hate you lost the tree, but it sure did provide some good turning material.

I love EVERYTHING about this bowl. It strikes me as something you DO NOT use it for popcorn Bill. I will be happy to change its use in case you decide you had too much popcorn:)

Love the thickness of it and love the rim. Satin finishes makes this type of wood something you want to "caress" all the time ;)

Lovely Bowl Bill!
