Great piece, Neil!! I love the character of this one, and the choice of grain orientation really adds a lot. Well done!

Well done Neil! I really like the wood and the form you have created. Highlighting the grain, the way you did really adds to the beauty.

A great looking vessel and finish is top notch. Hey you know if you poured it full of casting resin you could use it for a bowling ball.:D Seriously though love the grain and color.

The sphere looks spot on and the wood grain orientation really adds a lot of motion. Coming in late so that's all pretty redundant at this point! Well done...
