Nice job Shane. I like the form you used. It's OK if the turning part is genetic but I'm a bit worried about anything else. He...he!!:D :)

"Come back Shane" with more of the same because I like the curve, wood, and finish. You did a great job with this one, and I hope to see more.

Well Done Shane!

One of the Creekers here shipped me a Mesquite log last month and I roughed the first piece last night. Turned great but tough on the chainsaw, I guess I should have installed a sharp chain.

Keep it up. I predict that bowl has these words, said by your spouse, in its near future. "Honey, I going to keep this one"

Very nice bowl Shane! Love the wood grain, the color, size and the way you gave the rim a slight upward slant! Looking forward to seeing your next bowl!
