Box Elder HF

[Neal Addy]

Just a little hollow form.

Box Elder, 3"H x 3-3/4"W. Sanded 'til I got tired of sanding, finished with Seal-A-Cell, and buffified.

Great looking piece Neal. Lots of red in there. Well done.

[Scott Hubl]

Glad to see you made up with your lathe there Neal.;)

Nice work as always. You got some really good natural talent at the lathe Neal.

You could be like me, and just blow up about 99.9% of everything you put on it.http://www.33smiley.com/smiley5/humor/4.gif

Neal....that form is dead on. The wood and finish are beautiful! Well done Sir!

[Fred Conte]

Very nice Neal - I love the strong contrasting colors!

[Nancy Laird]

Neal, every time I see a post started by you in this forum, I open it with anticipation, expecting to be blown away, and this time was no different. This one almost took my breath away! You have again impressed me!! This is gorgeous!

[Jim Becker]

I also like this piece very much.

[Steve Schlumpf]

Beautiful hollow form Neal! Love the wood, the rich color and the finish! Also think the photo is great! Excellent positioning of the form and great lighting! Really like the soft shadows!

Glad to see you turning again! Was afraid you had given it up for a career in photography!

[Nathan Hawkes]

That is one nice looking piece of wood!! I don't think I've seen a boxelder piece with that much red in it before. Very dramatic.

[Tom Sherman]

very nice Hf Neal, I like it a lot.

Neal,

I usually don't have much to say about most of the items posted on this forum, and I'll just keep that string going by saying .... WHAT NANCY SAID! :D

[Joseph Peacock]

WOW!!!! Well done nice HF!:cool:

[Skip Spaulding]

Very nice, like the shape and color. Will the red fade over time?

[Brian McInturff]

Neal, whatcha mean by "until I got tired of sanding" I didn't think you had to sand;):D
Cool piece by the way:cool:

Steve S ekeps talking bout you, and it is nice to see why. Some guys spin to make lumpy things round, and a few , to make artful pieces. You are in the latter group. :D:D:D

Very pretty Neal, I would have sworn this was a big one if you hadn't said.

[Thomas Bennett]

Your HF reminds me of a piece of fruit from some imaginery tree. Simply beautiful!

[Steve Trauthwein]

Neal,

I really like the profile on this piece. Love box elder in all forms!

Regards, Steve

The form and wood make a piece near perfection.
