    Jeff, Very nice and love the spalted maple! I have a bunch of it that I am cutting into blanks so soon more creations from me! The only thing I would have changed is the base is a little thick and the sharp flat kind of goes against the curves and flow of the rest of it, just a thought.

    Hello Jeff,

    I was by Gary's last night and he was telling me that you made one of these and today I see it on here. Great looking hollow form. I really like the spalting. See you at the meeting next week.

    Mike
