Apple HF #4

[Eric Holmquist]

Apple Hollow Form. Around 7" (17 cm) tall. Finished with waterborne lacquer. Last of the apple wood supply. I've been working on getting a flared rim form right, and finally got one that I liked.

Oh boy! That's one apple that won't spoil the barrel.
It's a beauty.

That's really nice, Eric. The form is great and the finish is spectacular. I can't even look at apple without it checking.

Thanks everyone

Doug - I have only turned 4 apple pieces, and so far have had good luck with checking.
