That is a great platter. You really captured the feathering well.

MY GOSH!!!!!! Dale, that is an unbelievable piece of Claro, and you are right - I am lusting at this very moment! Beautiful work, too, but I would have to be honest - the wood is what takes the show and shadows your customary wonderful work on platters.
BTW, Dale does a great demo on platters (among other things - metal spinning, etc.) and it is well worth seeing if you get the chance.
Thanks, Dale, for posting this on SMC - I would not have seen it otherwise.

Beautiful display of color and grain!

That is a BIG and BEAUTIFUL piece of wood. I almost feel like saying that stuff doesn't grow on trees anymore.

What a beautiful platter. That's an exceptional piece of wood.

Isn't it too close to Christmas to be taunting someone with gorgeous wood? No? Ok... Just checking.
Nicely done, Dale!

That is a very spectacular piece of walnut and your part in it is pretty cool also. Your layout to capture the feather is perfect.

Really nice platter and the feathering is awesome
