Spalted Pecan Bowl

[Christopher K. Hartley]

Finally finished, 11" X 3 1/2"; Sanded to 600 grit; finished with BLO and Satin Poly then waxed. Sorry about the pics, they really don't do it justice. Comments for improvement are welcome. Thanks for looking.:)

I like the beads you made on the outside and the rim. Beautiful piece. Yeah, I'm trying to figure out the photography thing too. Sad to say I'm not doing so well with that.

Beautiful bowl, Christopher! I also like the rim treatment/beads.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Very nice bowl. Love the contrast in the wood.

[James Manning]

[John Miliunas]

Lookin' mighty fine, Christopher! Wonderful piece of wood and you done it justice. :) Improvements? Well, maybe for the pics. I think they would look a whole lot better if I shot them. In Wisconsin. At my house. On the sofa table. At about 3:00 p.m., with a lot of natural light. :D :cool:
