Yellow Pine Bowl

[Steve Doerr]

This is from a piece of yellow pine that I have had in the shop for awhile. I have turned a couple of other piece from the wood of the same tree and have really liked the way it looks. The yellow pine has lots of pitch in it and is heavily spalted. It was first attacked by pine bark beetles and the got the spalting through their wholes. The bowl was turned thin so that the heavily pitched areas would be translucent. The bowl is 9 7/8"w x 3 1/4"h and is about 3/16" thick. I dipped it twice in my oil blend and the Beall buffed it. C&C welcomed

Great color Steve and the translucence and finish are top notch.
