the pierced rim is about 1/8" thick

thanx for looking

[Paul Andrews]

Wow! Just awesome work!

[Mike A. Smith]

Anybody else having trouble viewing the pictures?

[Neal Addy]

Yep. They don't come in for me either.

[Ron Fleice]

All I see is the Red X's

[Tony De Masi]

Same here, only red X's. But they are well proportioned and I love the form.

[Rick Apt]

Just incredible ... love the pierced rim !

[Paul Engle]

Yep the color is perfect for red x's ........

[Ken Fitzgerald]

Sasha.....Your work is always incredible! These are no different! Very, very nice!

[Neal Addy]

Wow! Those are beauties, Sascha. I love the piercing. I may have to borrow that idea some day.

For some reason I had to go into properties and copy the URL into my browser to see these. Once they were pulled up from the link they were visible in your thread. Strange.

[Mike Ramsey]

Wow! those are just perfect little red x's!!

[Jason Slutsky]

Sascha,

I only saw red x's too so I went to your website and found the pictures. WOW! I really like the way that you pierced to follow the grain of the burl!

Jason

[Jeff Moffett]

Wow is right! I love the pierced rim. Beautiful artistic work!

[Bernie Weishapl]

I also had to go to the website as here all I can see are red X's.

Wow Sascha. Well done.

[paul ashman]

Those are two of the most beautiful forms I have seen!

[TYLER WOOD]

Sacsh,
Simply stunning work! I love the mallee burl bowl. Gives me an idea for a burl I have had, but no idea what to do with it. It is so irregular shaped. I felt bad wasting wood just making a bowl. Now I will put wings in the design and see what happens!

By the way I did notice your love of cigars, but no turned humidor yet. Try it They go over great as decor and usefulness. Search here for the one I turned. I am about to turn 3 more in the next couple weeks.

Again simply stunning work, and congrats on the girl too. Nice pics, you can see a lot in those pics in the emotion of yours and her faces. But back to woodworking!!!!

[Ed Scolforo]

Those are some of the most beautiful red x's I've ever seen!!

[Rich Stewart]

Red X's here too. Can somebody fix it?

[Jim Becker]

LOL...I don't even get the "red exes"! And when I look at the original post in edit mode (which I can do...) there are no links visible so I can't "fix" it.

[TYLER WOOD]

You can click on his name and see his public profile. Go to his website, wood turnings, then all the way to the bottom. You'll see a pierced rim piece.

[sascha gast]

that is the strangest thing I have seen so far, I have been using pbase for almost 2 years now as my host, but I have noticed last night that firefow opens the pics, Safari doesn't and I don't know about the other browsers. I'll check what's going on, meanwhile here is a link to my turning site, the last bowls at the bottom

and thanx everybody for the kind words

[William Bachtel]

No photos here.

[Jim Stoppleworth]

Wow! Beautiful work! Have to try that piercing on one of my walnut winged bowls to see what it looks like.

In IE you get the red X's but just a copy and paste of the properties brings the pics up.

Jim

[Ed Scolforo]

Sascha, those are truely works of art. Magnificent!

[Brett Baldwin]

You've done some great things with those awesome burls.

[Skip Spaulding]

Had to hit your web site to find pictures. WOW!! again, great work!

[sascha gast]
