English Walnut Pocket Pot

[Carole Valentine]

This was my first experience with English Walnut. It turned like butter and does not have as open a grain as our Black Walnut. The color is also a little different. This piece is bare wood - not even buffing or wax. Yeah, Andy, I've decided that the best way to keep track of finishing is NOT to finish!:D

Carole, this is just another example of your eye for form and your turning talent. Absolutely teriffic piece:) :) . Need to know the size please.

Very nice, Carole!

I've got a couple of small pieces of EW that I need to give a spin.

Thanks for the picture!

[Dick Parr]

Very nice Carole, great looking little HF. Great job.:)

[Michael Stafford]

Nicely done! I love seeing these miniatures!:D

[Andy Hoyt]

Cool!

And that's a process even I can remember!

[Jim Dunn]

It looks like it needs a stem to smoke it from:eek::eek: Nice looking pot Carole.;)

[John Hart]

That really is some pretty wood Carole and you did a cool Itty Bitty. Nicely done! Did you hollow it out to match the outside wall?

[Bernie Weishapl]

Looks great Carole. Beautiful work as usual. Love working with English walnut.

[Travis Stinson]

Another wonderful little form Carole. Keep 'em coming.:cool:

Of course I did, John! What do think - I am some sort of slouch?:D:D:D The walls are a little less than 1/8"

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Carole you certainly have the "eye" and talent for flowing form!

[Bill Stevener]

No comment on what you are calling it, however the turning is outstanding and the prep for finishing looks flawless. Should look great when you finish it.
OK, I'll ask, what is a pocket pot? Can one get in trouble with this device.:D

Bill, "pocket pot" is a term that I think was coined by Molly Winton. Just a little tiny hollow form. Probably will leave this one natural with no finish.

[Bill Stevener]

OK, that sounds good. As to the size of it, I didn't think it was something one would carry in there pocket on a hiking trip, for an emergency situation.:D

Now Andy, check this one out, no oil, no foil, no boil. No wipe on, no wipe off. No blo, no soak time, no schedule. Just part it off and it's done.

Can't beat that.

Hey Carole, just from your posts I've read and seen I didn't take you for the pocket pot type:D :D . But that sure is a nice little pot. That's some finish too for not having a finish.

[Corey Hallagan]

That is very nice Carol, I can't believe you haven't polished or finished that piece. I love that.
