Oh, thats nice. I havn't turned walnut yet. Nice contrast between sapwood and heartwood. Good job on the form.

Mark it is walnut and works for me. Hopefully I can get this new lathe setup and make something out of the walnut you sent. Nice job sir.

Sure did... not a better way I know of to get a chunk of green wood quickly dried and into a finished shape...

Mark, that is a real salad bowl. I like the way the wood color is balanced. You did a perfect job with the curves on this one.

My "plain" bowls don't exactly look llike that. I must need to get "plainer" wood. Very nice..........:)
