Live Oak NE Bowl

[Curt Fuller]

This bowl is turned from "Live Oak". I'm not sure what live oak is but this was from a tree that was downed during one of the hurricanes that hit Florida last year. I let it sit too long before turning it and it cracked a little but the cracks don't seem to be getting any bigger. The greenish gray on the bark is lichens. I put a little CA on them so they will hopefully stay there. It's 10.5" diameter.

There's some neat stuff happening with that wood, Curt. And I do like the piece. Hows about a side view?

[John Hart]

Very cool. It's great that you kept the lichens. Nice touch Curt!:)

Thanks everyone.

Andy, here's a side view. I have a hard time getting that angle so it's sitting on a small upside down bowl.

Nice job Curt. Cool that you could keep the lichens on there.

[Travis White]

Very nice bowl. I did one of those but it cracked just a month later.
