Pink Myrtle Vase

[John Hart]

Well...I'm still fighting my photo booth so I just went simple. This is a piece of Pink Myrtle Burl that I wanted to go for the form that Mark Singer illustrated in the Redwood Vase thread. It's finished with BLO/Shellac/DNA cocktail and buffed up. 6" high and 4" in diameter. Critiques welcome!

At least you can see this one!!!:D

Slow down John!:D your gona burn that lathe up if you keep cranking out all these turnings:D
Nice Job on them both John, keep up the good work;)

Don't change one dang thing.

Thanks guys!

Grrr...I just took a level shot and put the pics together. I guess I missed the mark by quite a bit. Guess I'll have to do another one!

[Andy Hoyt]

Hey, John. That's pretty close. Probably could have done better if Mark had the real piece sent to you to copy. Ask nice, maybe he will:cool:

I'm gonna turn one of these tomorrow. Tired of ornnaments and other spindly things.

Wow John, I'm really liking those vases you keep cranking out. I gotta try some HF stuff. I too like the collar or lip at the top

[Ernie Nyvall]

Actually I kinda like the flow of yours John. Nice vase.

Another good one, John. I'm a sucker for a void... and I like this one!

Thanks for the pics!
