Greetings All;
I have turned the Walnut HF / Vase below and not sure what the best finish is for a piece with so much bark? My initial thought was danish oil the whole thing then poly gel on the non-bark sections. I don't recall seeing other pieces with this much bark left on.
This started out as a log from my wifes uncles orchard in central CA. It is the first real HF that I have turned. Used the Sorby Hollow Master, It was quite the experience. It is 8 inches tall by 6 inches at the widest part.
Thanks in advance for you feedback.
Mike
