just a bowl

[dennis kranz]

It's not a very large bowl 5 inch across 2 inch high. Nothing special as far as wood goes. I think the man said soft maple. The finish is just a friction polish. What is special is that it's my first bowl. Took a class a the local Woodcraft. Learned a ton of stuff and had a very good time.

Nice work! Smooth curve and burned embellishments too! :)

[Keith Burns]

Dennis, that is more than "just a bowl". Besides being your first, it is one FINE looking first bowl. Great form and curve !!! You have done yourself proud:) :)

[Bernie Weishapl]

[Steve Schlumpf]

Happy Turning,

That's a very good first Mr.Dennis!!!;) :D :cool:

[Jim Becker]

And a fine bowl it is! You got a nice regular curve and the small foot is sized appropriately...great job!

[Mike Vickery]

I might hate you. That would be a fine looking piece for a 30th bowl never mind a first.

I might hate you. That would be a fine looking piece for a 30th bowl never mind a first.

I agree Mike. Dennis, where do you get off making the rest of us feel bad?

Seriously, very nice, congratulations.

[Bruce Shiverdecker]

Definitely NOT "just a bowl!" It is a VERY nice ice cream container:D :D :D :D

[Tom Sherman]

Dennis you have a winner, first of many I'ld say. Great job.

[Jonathon Spafford]

That is such a great first... there are several on here who have turned beautiful firsts! Makes me mad... we can only turn one first and mine is nothing to be proud of :rolleyes: ;) Congratulations on a first bowl... you did a fine job!

[dennis kranz]

I want to say thanks to all for for those encourageing words. Must tell you that I tried a second bowl today and as of yet have not found all the pieces. There wasn't enough left over for a scoop.
Thanks again
Dennis

Dennis,

Nice form, nice foot and nice finish, I think you've got this turning stuff down.

How did you burnish the lines?
