Needed a turning fix.So this maple HF is what i came up with. Nothin special,just a old piece of maple i had sitting around for over a year, and decided it was time to put it to use. Not sure if it needs a finial,but had one sitting around that fit, so i'll show a pic of it with,and with out and let ya all decide if it should have one or not.

I like it witht he finial. Nice match for one that was just sitting around. I'm going to think that you might have adjusted it a bit to follow the curve so well. Nice looking piece with or without the finial

Nice looking HF, I don't think it needs a finial but agree that this finial fits really well. You won't go wrong either way.

Nice form Steve, wood looks great. I like the piece with or without the finial. Nice job on the finial's form, well executed. And, it transitions nicely on the form. My only comment would be the size of the finial, to my tastes it would look better if it was a bit larger/taller.
