This bowl is 7" high by 5" wide (it's not as squat looking in person as in the pics). It's on the thick side, under 1/2", but with so many big cracks I didn't want to risk losing this piece of wood, even stabilized with CA. (It started out almost 10" tall...) All comments welcome -- I'm thick skinned and trying to get a better feel for form.
It was a lucky find -- I went to see what they had at the town compost facility, but there were no new trees. Not wanting to leave empty handed, I went to the pile where people dump rotten firewood and grabbed one plain looking log that wasn't too badly checked -- and this was inside.

And here's a small vase from the same log. Something about the form isn't quite right to me; is the "waist" too low?
