A couple of weeks ago I aquired a few pieces of Madrone Burl. Tonight after work, I decided I needed to turn one of them. This was turned from a 6 1/2" x 3" bowl blank.
The blanks have all been boiled (before I got them), so I'm hoping it won't move much.
I've been wanting to try some madrone for awhile, and I have to say it lived up to all of my expectations. It was very nice to turn and if my hands were a little bit steadier, sanding would have just been an option.
It's 6" x 2 3/4", finished with Antique oil and I'll give it a buff this weekend.
