Hollow form # 2

[Jim Ketron]

Here is my 2nd finished hollow form using the homemade captive hollowing rig. Its Box Elder with curl and red flame, 6 1/2 tall finish is Deft lacquer wet sanded to 2000.

[Glenn Hodges]

Jim, the form is just great as is the wood. Thanks for showing it to us. I wish I had some of that box elder to work with.

[Ed Scolforo]

Jim, I think you found your specialty!

[Steve Roxberg]

Very pretty, did you post about your home made jig yet?

Was the wood green and how did you dry it?

[Michael Stafford]

I saw this piece in person and folks I am here to tell you that this is one magnificent piece of work. The finish is flawless with every grain of wood visible so finely sanded this is. It is light as feather. Jim, I will say again this is simply beautiful..... :) :) :)

Most all my turnings is from green wood I use Dave Smiths alky method
on all of them. It works great!;)

Thanks all for the Nice comments.

Hi Jim,

Some think the more turning one does the easer it gets. However, this is not always true. Now, the hardest part, is yet to come. Out-due the one you have just turned.

A very impressive turning.

Outstanding, Jim. This is a wonderful form and really lets the wood speak. Wonderful!

[Rick Simmons]

Wow Jim,

Great work.
