Something a little different for me. Ive been experimenting with thick-walled bowls. Black Cherry 7" X 3". Sanded to 600 and oiled. And, symbolic of the wood-turning black hole that is sucking down most of my discretionary income, a Vortex :)

Thanks for looking!

Nice piece! I think most of us with little money and lots of tools can identify with it.:D

How symbolic! The grain plays nicely to the theme....

Interesting concept - very nice workmanship! Love the wood color, grain pattern and the soft finish! Nice to turn something that has a story to go along with it!

Nice job. Talk about symbolism. The grain pattern really follows the circular motion down into the depths of the vortex. Nice piece!

Nice piece! Definitely illustrates the vortex that we are all familiar with. By the way, what is this "discretionary income" of which you speak? I don't think I have any of that? Where can I buy some?

nicely done. I used to have that kind of income not long ago. Congrats
