Ahhh Jim, that's mighty sweet! Great job showing off that wonderful figuring. I sure hate that I missed out on that wood score.....

Jim, that form is excellent. The lines are as near perfect as I have seen, and the color graps the attention to make this a very pleasing piece.

Just curious, what size blank did you start with. Vase looks pretty large but photos are deceiving. Thanks, Brian

This blank was about 12" long by 6X6

Beautiful vase Jim. That box elder with the flame is really something. I'd forgotten about that stuff when we discussed a trade, but I'll bet that would be really hard to let go of as a equal trade to mesquite. How about I throw in a leg or maybe an arm? :D
