Those are super nice Joseph. Really a lot of curl in that wood. Well done.

Camphor and Eucalyptus, I can guess what your shop smells like :eek:. opens your sinuses right up!

The Eucalyptus moves a lot, even when dry, and clean it off the tools quickly!

I will say I like the first form better, but both look nice and show off the wood well.

Very nice pieces. I recently turned a bowl from som Camphor Laurel (Australian) and my shop smelled like Vicks for a week!
