Here is a hickory HF I did with a ebony collar and finial. Walls are just over 1/8" thick. It is 6 1/2" across and 3 1/2" high. Finished with Antique Oil and buffed.

Another well done piece Bernie. Love the short and squat form. Kind of reminds me of, well ME. :(

Very nice work Bernie! Great looking hollow form - amazing detail work on your finial! You just keep getting better at this turning thing!

Bernie what a super HF. I love the form and I only wish I could think of doing finials like that.
Great job Steve

Very nice Bernie! I love the way grain looks in the second picture. Looks like a topo map! Very striking.

Bernie you are turning them out at an alarming rate and doing a bang up job to boot. Lookin good.

Thanks everyone. It is appreciated. This was a neat project for me as this is the first as one said squat form. Wasn't sure how it would turn out but was pleasantly surprise. I want to try one of these in walnut with a holly collar and finial or some really white maple.

Truly nice work, Bernie! Collar and finial two separate pieces... nice touch! I also like the form. Well done, Bernie. :)

Bernie,

Please stop turning and go on to a photography habit. You really do put anything I make to shame. Way to go!!! Hilel.
