I started this last nite after I put the finish on my new tool cabinet and finished it this morning.

Mesquite with BLO and Wax finish, 5 inch wide 3 inch high.

thanks for looking

Great color on that one, Ace. I'd like to turn more mesquite, but it's not exactly "native" to SE PA! The one piece I did turn was great...and you can't beat its stability. Nice job on the bowl...keep up the great work!

Wow! Ace that looks great.I hope that some day I can develop my skills to the point where can turn like that. Just love that NATURAL edge.

P.S. I should have hoarded some of that mesquite back when I lived in Texas many years ago. Hind site is 20/20. :(

awesome mix of finish and unfinished. very zen. GORGEOUS! it's great to see a zen like balance and appreciation for beauty. Applaus for letting the natural be what it is. if all of humanity took this approach topercieving people, this world would be a btter place!
