Curly Walnut lidded hollow form

[Travis Stinson]

I've been hanging on to this lil block of curly Walnut for a while. I wish I could show the awesome curl in this better! 5" x 5" with the finial in place. Blackwood collar and finial/lid.

Travis... I say this with all sincerity... you make me sick...:rolleyes:










Super my friend... just super... great finial!!!!

[Bernie Weishapl]

Travis don't have to worry about the Keltons now cause I couldn't do them justice if I tried. That is awesome Travis. Nice form and finish.

[Don Orr]

That has to be the prettiest piece of walnut I've ever seen. The figure is real nice too:D . Chalk up another spectacular "Stinson" signature work. Coming soon to a gallery near you!

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Travis........you are incredible.........and so are your turnings! Stunning!

[Dennis Peacock]

That's a keeper there Travis.!!!! Beautiful. Just Beautiful.:D

[Ed Scolforo]

Another stunner!!!

[Glenn Hodges]

Travis, this beautiful one lives up to what I have come to expect from you. My own personal taste is that the finial is to large for this small piece. It might be the picture, I don't know sometimes they look different in reality when you hold them in your hands. This exceptional piece of wood lucked up when it found itself in your capable hands because it will now be a work of art forever.

[Michael Stafford]

Indeed, a beautiful piece of wood displayed beautifully by a skilled turner. Very, very nice, Travis!:D

[Vaughn McMillan]

That piece is stunning, Travis. I'm speechless. Great job.

PLEASE tell me that sometimes you screw one up, and just don't show us......:(

Super duper ureal.

Cheers!

[Steve Ash]

That is beautiful, you are a very talented person. It looks so smooth and warm to the touch.

[Travis Stinson]

Thanks everyone. Glenn, I agree. It does look much more proportioned in person, it's weird how a photograph can throw things out of perspective. I am thinking of adding a short pedestal to it to help balance it out.;)

[Raymond Overman]

Excellent work Travis. Beautiful wood and nice form on the hollow.

[Travis Stinson]

Stu, I've got plenty that didn't make it out of the shop.;)

[Keith Burns]

Travis, an absolutely beautiful piece !:) :) And for once I have to agree with Mark, you make me sick:eek: :D

[Andy Hoyt]

..... And for once I have to agree with Mark, you make me sick:eek: :D Yup, I'm in that camp too.

On the other hand; I could rub that thing and conjur up the genie, and all my woes would be gone.

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Andy.......You'd have too much ice cream to eat if you could rub that and get the genie to appear!:rolleyes: :D

[Gil Jones]

Exceptional artistry, Travis.

[Andy Hoyt]

Andy.......You'd have too much ice cream ..... Not a possibility!

[Jim Ketron]

Beautiful Travis!
Love the form and the finial!
And that wood is just plain Awesome!
