Here is the bottom of a spalted cherry box I'm turning. I have yet to do the top as I was interrupted in my turning. Maybe later this week.

Keith that will be nice. Nice spalted cherry! Looks like you got a real nice thin wall and bottom on it. Can't wait to see it finished.

finish applied. Mylands buffed out. Not sure why the line on there only in reflections. Perhaps not even application of finish. Was close to the chuck

You did a good job, Keith. That's a pretty piece of wood and it looks like the lid fits nicely. The lines look similar to some I can see in the little bowl I posted pics of last night. Maybe you and I both need better lighting at the lathe. :) It sure can be hard to see the little sanding lines in light-colored wood. Until you hit them with a camera flash, that is. :p
