Charlie, I would say you nailed the bird image - good work. On these calabash cup turnings, is there a flat spot on the bottom? The bottom appears to be rounded or profiled some. Just wondering how they are displayed.

Dennis and John.....thank you for looking and your comments.
the bottom is rounded, coming to a rounded point at the center of the bottom (continous curve).......the bottom is thicker than the sides, which in this case are 1/4 to 3/8........
if you have an uneven top edge, your bottom highpoint will tend to be off center......which is sort of nice also.......I just jam chuck to shape the bottom
