Oak Piece

[David Delo]

Smallest blank from a core several years ago. I usually just throw them away but for some reason kept this one. Was looking for something to do after the normal Sunday afternoon siesta so this little piece stood out to do before dinner. 7 1/2" x 2". If I had it to do over again, I would delete the texture and the burned line and just left the rim band natural.

Nice bowl. I agree on leaving off the texture, it looks lost among the wood grain. I do like the burn line, though.

[Mark Greenbaum]

The texture on the sides would be better if a burn line ran above and below to help delineate the zone.

Thanks for the input Tom & Mark...........Dang, just couldn't leave well enough alone.

[Mark Greenbaum]

Don't take what I stated the wrong way; you have a very appealing form, and great piece of wood. Well done.

Added elements do not always produce the sum we are looking for. Nice bowl.

No problem here with what you said Mark.

Allan, I hear ya
