Great job Jack, I like the proportion / form & overall fit of the piece plus a nice finish to cap it of
Pete
Great form Kathy, that timber, wow, it's like doing a circuit around some planet from beyond space.
I could live with this piece no sweat :D

John, to me this matches the same named piece of beautiful music I grew up listening to my older sister playing on our piano

Many thanks Dick, Scott, Joel & Bill, yes these can be a bit tricky if you dont get the parting cut between the 2 opposing wings just right or you will have some real fun with the transition, the...

Fabulous thread Guys, I have nothing to add but boy it makes great reading / learing
Pete
Thats some fabulous spalting there Nate but it cant discuise a realy nice looking bowl, I do like your bottom treatment it just look neat
Pete
Kelvin I think the size almost limits it to a small bowl, or maybe a square edge or 2 up 2 down type of turn.
If it is a real old dried out piece then be patient with the sanding(keep it slow) & you...

A piece of very old heart Rimu, turned quite thin, developed a few cracks, filled them with CA which went black on me, so I added a grove top & bottom & burnt the area between.
Any comments...
You're just having way too much fun with these little beauties Roger, great selection :)
Pete

Paul, this was for a very old...
