First "natural edge" bowl

[Dok Yager]

Started on this natural edge bowl about 5 months ago. Rough turned it and then allowed it to do the paper bag routine and then some drying in the garage, well it is Arizona. ;) So about a week ago i went back to it and I had forgotten just how much figure and occlusions were in it. Took two more days to "very carefully" finish turning it. Finished in wood turners salad bowl finish in five coats starting at 320 grit and going to 1200. Hopefully I did an Ok job.

Unturned: 297554




Turned: 297553 297555

Definitely not just an any bow! It's very fascinating to natural edge bowls. It takes patience and remarkable
attention to details. Well done!
