Manitoba Maple natural edge

[Bob Hamilton]

Hi:
I roughed out this one last summer and really didn't expect it to survive drying because of the extensive bark inclusions that almost bisect it, so I was very pleased with the way it turned out. It is about 9" x 8 1/2" and 4 1/2" high. The little twig surviving intact was a bonus. :)

Great bowl, twig is great! Can just see one of my grandkids saying "hey, whats this ?" as they break the twig off!!

[Brian McInturff]

That's a beauty there Bob. I love the twig. It adds so much to the "character" of the bowl. Simply amazing!!!

[Jim Becker]

Very nice!


(And for those south of Canada, it's called box elder down here....)

Great job Bob, having the twig survive adds a new dimension to the piece.
