I needed a turning fix this weekend, between yard work and bear watching I needed a break. So, I went out to my wood storage and saw this 12x12 piece of walnut I brought from NC in my wood survival stash. Inspired by Tim R's spectacular walnut hollow form I hoped for the best. There was a bark inclusion that went about 2/3 of the way through the center of the blank along the entire length. I some how managed to keep it together with copious amounts of CA and Verdigris Embossing powder. Some how I managed not to turn away the feather that accompanied the inclusion. Finish is Dr Workshop Walnut Oil with Wax. Overall diameter is 12"
