Here is a ambrosia maple bowl I finished today from one of the blanks I got from Jim Ketron last month. It is 10" X 2-1/2" and is 3/8" thick, sanded to 600 grit and buffed with all 3 steps and no other finish.

This maple sure did turn nice and there is even a little curl in the maple. Thanks for looking. :)

Thanks Carol, I did use the 3 buffing compounds but no other finish like BLO or tung oil. The last buffing was wax. Thanks for the comment. :)
