My first pecan bowl!

[Joseph Peacock]

It's 8-1/4" in diamiter and 3-1/4" tall it is finished with 2 coats of antique oil, I think it is the best bowl I have ever done!!!!!!:D ;) :cool:

[Tom Sherman]

Excellent bowl Joseph, keep the pressure on Pops

[Robert McGowen]

Since it is bigger and nicer than any bowl I have turned before, I will have to say that it is most EXCELLENT! The signature on the bottom is a nice touch also. Who are you learning all this from? :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

[Nancy Laird]

Joseph, your bowl is just beautiful, and I love the grain in that wood. Wanna sell it???

Nancy

[Terry Quiram]

For a rookie I would say that you have the process down pretty well.;) A good looking bowl.

Joseph - I have to tell ya - that is one nice looking bowl!!! Beautiful wood grain, classic form and a great finish! I've been at this for a couple of years now and would be proud as heck if I had made this bowl! Nice work - can't wait to see what you come up with next!

[Jason Roehl]

Looks great, Joseph!

I just want to know what kind of pecan that is--is it PEE-can or p'CAHN? :D

[Dick Durbin]

He's from Arkansas, it has to be Pee-can. Nice work, Joseph.

He's from Arkansas, it has to be Pee-can. Nice work, Joseph.

Across the river in Tennessee, and out here in New Mexico, it's p'CAHN. :rolleyes:

Yep, p'CAHN for us Texans, too. A PEE-CAN is something you find under the bed.

Way to go, Joseph! Didn't your Dad tell you that Pecan (however you pronounce it) is tough stuff to turn. That earns you extra credit. I'm impressed!!

[Keith Burns]

Joseph, that is one fine bowl. I see your Dad turned a couple bowls as well. Glad you've taken the time to teach hin a few tricks:D

[Bernie Weishapl]

Joseph that bowl is a beauty. Old dad is going to have to get you your own mustard one of these days. Nice work.

[Barry Stratton]

GREAT JOB Joseph! Beauty of a bowl and WOW, what a finish.

I'm gonna have to come visit YOU for some lessons.

[Jonathon Spafford]

Wow! What a beautiful bowl! That wood is gorgeous and the finish is awesome! You did a fine job, Joseph... I sure didn't display that kind of talent with my first bowls! Your gonna be the next Richard Raffan!

[Mark Pruitt]

Way to go Joseph! Very fine job. I see too that you let Dad borrow your lathe recently. That was nice of you--gotta humor the ol' fella now and then.:p

[Marc Martindale]

Beautiful Bowl Joseph! Keep up the good work!

[steven carter]

Great job Joseph, you should be as proud as a peacock... oh yeah, i guess you already are;)!

[Alex Cam]

It looks like you've got the same eye for form that your dad does -- well done!

[Glenn Hodges]

Outstanding bowl.

[Joseph Peacock]

Well Mr.Robert to tell you the truth I learnd it from my dad!;) :D :cool:

[Don Orr]

Strong work there Joseph. Nice shape, nice wood, nice finish.

By the way, do you go by Joseph, or Joe, or anything else ?

[Joseph Peacock]

Yes Mr.Don, I do go by Joe.:D

[Pete Jordan]

Keep it up Joe,

You are well on your way to greatness!

[Don Orr]

OK Joe, everybody was being so formal here I wanted to make sure it was acceptable to call you by the more familiar nickname. Especially since we are kind of family here. And you can leave out the "Mr." for me, Don will do fine.

Take care,

[Tony De Masi]

Joe,

Absolutely wonderful bow. I think you have forced a lot of us adults to spend more time in front of the lathe to hone our skills so you don't catch up too quickly. But with you have as a mentor, I don't think it will take very long at all anyway.

Keep up the good work.

Tony

[Frank Kobilsek]

Joe,
When I started turning I was the only woodturner I knew. I can tell you have met a few other turners in the past because your first post you show a picture of the bottom of the bowl. Nobody is going to call you out for unprofessional finish on the bottom.

Good job and keep at it. I'm teaching my Dad to turn. Its a cool experience to share stuff like this with your parents more matter how old you are.

Nice bowl! way to show the old man up! Just hope my son does the same to me in a few years. I still have a few to wait as he is only 4, but still looks over dad's shoulde rwanting to help.
