I got this piece of ash from Rob Bourgeois at Travis's place over the weekend so I fired up the lathe to see if I can still turn after watching those guys turn all weekend.:eek: It has been about couple of weeks since the lathe has been on, but it still works.

The bowl finished up at 8-3/4" x 2-3/4" and is finished with wipe on poly and then buffed and waxed on the wheels. Left some of the worm holes in it.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice sir! I really like that knot, and the foot has a very touchable look to it as well.:)

And I was about to burn it...geesh...

Good job Dick. Nice looking bowl.

I am glad to see it in the hands of an experinced turner compared to myself. My wife thinks this is funny for some reason....

Good thing about ash is after you burn it... you still have a pile of ash to work with.:rolleyes: ... and it's still early.

Nice bowl there Dick.

Well since no one else said it, I might as well.....


"Now that, Gentlemen, is one nice piece of Ash.........!" :D

The Ash I get here is quite a bit lighter in color, is this color typical for the Ash you see over there?

Cheers!

Real nice bowl Dick. My wife says so far she like the look of Ashe the best.

Nice bowl, Dick! But it's a little wormy (something you won't hear said about me)...:D

Did you have to dig out the holes, or did they clear on their own?
