So with all the extra time I have had a chance to turn few items. I'm new to turning and especially to hollowing. This is a maple hollow form, about 9" in diameter, with a walnut top.
I have never tried hollowing this shape and found it to be much more challenging than the 2 other hollow forms I've done (more vertical forms). The base is a little thicker than the top. It was hollowed with the D-way hollower. Finish is Watco Danish Oil.
I'm not sure I love the finial.....it seems a little chunky at the bottom and I've considered re-turning it but haven't decided yet.
Comments/critique are welcome.
Thanks,
Tom
