Ed super nice bowl. Love the size and shape. Your finish is very nice. That is one of the oils I haven't tried.

[George Tokarev]

Nice piece of wood, and well turned. The eastern soil or variety of cherry must be a lot different from our local stuff. Color develops fast in our local brand. Have you tried your brand of wood with a coat of hot linseed under the antique oil for color development? Assuming, of course, that you want to get it quicker.

Thanks for your comments, George. No, I haven't tried your method on cherry, but will keep it in mind.

That's a very pretty bowl Ed. Is that the cherry that grows wild or is it the cherry that grows in the cherry orchard type cherry?
