Florida Manitoba Maple Turnings

[George Guadiane]

This Box Elder was retrieved here in Ormond Beach Florida from a tree less than a mile from my home. I was chasing a gigantic camphor tree that had been felled in this neighbor's yard. She gave me permission to take whatever I wanted...
Imagine my surprise when I started looking through the pieces and found THIS.

Ogee Shaped Bowl 12 7/8 D X 3 H inches oil sanded finish
Hollow Form 3 1/2 D X 5 3/4 H oil sanded finish
Footed Vase 3 1/2D X 4 3/8 H oil sanded finish

As Always, All Comments and Critiques Welcome

very nice George

[Thomas Canfield]

Nice pieces and nice wood. It is surprising what you can find when you get into some of the wood available on the street. The price is usually right also and just needs a little urging..

[Dick Bernard]

Beautiful pieces George, and very nice work.

Nice looking work. I wish Box Elder would retain its color. Enjoy it while you can.

Thank you to everyone for your kind comments!
I've been very lucky most of my life - and I guess I've made a lot of it myself, but this find was a real shocker.
