Decided, with all that was going on here over the weekend, I would do a little turning. This is the last of my "good mesquite", (oh the agony). This one measures 11-1/4" dia. x 9" tall with 3/8" walls. Lost a little of the bark so I burnt the edge where the bark used to be. Antique oil and buffed finish. Comments and critiques welcome. Thanks !

Very nice NE Keith! Beautiful wood! Sides on this one are so high it has more of a 'birdmouth' effect. Seriously nice! Hope you find some more 'good' mesquite soon!

Nicely done, Keith! Mesquite can be so pretty when handled well and I'd say you did a super job! May you find some more! Jude
