ambrosia maple bowl

[keith zimmerman]

I finally finished turning the ambrosia maple bowl blank I bought from Jim Ketron and want to share it. This bowl is 9 1/2" in diameter, 3" deep, and about 1/2" thick. I wanted to keep it thick so it had heft, and so the bark inclusion on the edge was more prominent.

Thanks for looking.

Nice looking bowl Keith. I like that shape a lot. I see Jim is exporting wood to all the states and how many foreign countries? :p ;)

Are my eyes playing tricks or does that wood have some nice curl in it?

[keith zimmerman]

Thanks for you kind words. Yes, It does have curl. That is really great because there is not much in the way of ambrosia markings. This wood was a pleasure to turn.

Wonderful bowl Keith, just love the curl and shape.

[John Hart]

Nice work Keith! It's good of you to leave some bark. It added a nice touch of character

[Jim Ketron]

Nice Bowl Keith! Nice curl in that piece.
Kinda shocked about it not having any streaks I thought I made sure everyone I sold had some in it:o
But the nice curl makes up for some of the missing streaks.

[keith zimmerman]

Thanks for the kind words Jim. I was a bit disappointed that there were no streaks in this blank, but I did find streaks in some others.

The curl more than makes up for the lack of streaks.
