new piece unknown wood

[ryan kelley]

This is one of the latest pieces that I have got finished. The wood was found at a city lot and I have no clue what it is. Finished with danish oil and satin wipe on poly. Critique away please. it is 9"x5 1/2" with a 1 1/4" foot.

Looks like walnut to me. Nice free-form on it!

[Steve Schlumpf]

Ryan - no idea what kind of wood it is but it sure is pretty! Love the form on this piece! Really nice work!

[Bill Bolen]

Ryan, great piece, I realllly like the shape of this. Looks like it took some time and a bit of pre-planning!...Bill..

[Dale Gregory]

Really like the form and the wood. Great job! I think they refer to it as FOG Wood (found on ground:D).

Very dunno wood piece Ryan.

Definately looks like turning wood:D. Nice work.

It could be anyone of several woods. It is too nice to spend time on other than enjoying what has been created. :D:D

dumb dumb its maple i have tons of it here sitting in my driveway as chunks and sitting in my feild as 5 logs i cut down the maple this summer the base was about 3 or 4 ft and split into 6 turns nice it has that pink and gray collor in somespots just like some maple does...... when you roughed it did the non-smoth edges throw splinters that hurt ur hand?

[Arlan Ten Kley]

Very unique, Ryan. I like it very much....particularly the utilization of the irregular surface.

[Reed Gray]

I would second the call on maple. I have turned a lot of it that is in that color spectrum. I wonder what caused the cavity in that one side. Doesn't look burned like lightening. Hmmmm.

I was wondering whre I dropped that piece of wood. Would you mind please sending it back to me!!!:D

Absolutely beautiful form. Probably one of my favorites now. Great job.

[curtis rosche]

the spot is probably where a tree greww beside it or it grew arounf but not over a fence............ i maybe new at turning but i know wood and have been studing trees for all 16 years of my life

[Curt Fuller]

Don't know about the wood, but you've done a beauty of a job with it. I love that form with the natural edge. The thin walls make it look even nicer.

[ryan kelley]

Thank you for all the great feed back. the wood wanted this shape with the void in the natural edge, so I only did what I was told. Though the foot was my idea.

Oooh! Very nice Ryan!
