I entered the Choice Woods National Woodturning Contest again this year and made into the round of 64 this time! We'll see how deep I can go!

Sorry - forgot the "rules" on the Creek. You all have seen this before, though. ...and yes, I am getting some mileage out of this bowl! Could have sold it many times at a show on Saturday, but I couldn't part with "my first burl"!

Contest Update: Made it through to the second round of voting, yesterday, by a slim margin with an apparent buzzer beater vote! One can see the vote percentages in real time; my opponent and I traded places many times across the 50/50 line.
