Well, a big thanks out to Ken for loaning me his Wolverine wheel dresser today so I could flatten out my grinding wheels! This enabled us to finally get to sharpening with the Wolverine Vari-grind and now we can get back to spinny things!

This is a piece of box elder with beautiful grain and color!

Approx 7 1/2" x 2 1/2" Laquer finish in the works.

Congrats on being back among the spinny, Forrest. Excellent job on a beautiful piece of wood, too. I've gotta try some box elder. I've seen several very nice pieces here made from the stuff.

Great Job Forest! Beautiful Fire in that bowl!:)

Hey Chris, not so sure you should be using "fire" to describe that for Forrest! :eek: :D But yeah, they've come a long way from the disaster, haven't they? :) :cool:

Thanks for the comments guys! Yeah, a little "fire" sensitive here!:eek::D

Speaking of flame though, check out the bottom of the bowl too. Man, this piece was loaded with red!
