Thanks all for the positive feedback on this piece,
As this was the first time for me turning such a large piece of burl there's always that thought in the back of your mind while working on it ... geez I sure don't want to #^$& this one up.
As it "turned out" I'm very pleased with the end result.

There is not much to improve on this one except that it should be displayed at my house! It has every thing a NE HF hunk of burl should have!

Thanks for sharing,

It's a gorgeous bit of turning, and the grain pattern is really something.

John,

The form is wonderful as well as the wood and the finish. There really is not much more to be said that has not already been said.

Wonderful Work.
