    216 holes

    I have never liked blue bowls. I have no reason why. After seeing T. Boulder's blue bowl , I tried coloring my newest piece. Surprise, I liked this blue bowl too. 5-1/2 h 7diam maple, metallic paint & stain. So thanks for sharing your coloring attempts. You might have changed my mind

    Nice shade of blue, and interesting effect on the slots. In some way the slots are similar to your other pieces, and in some ways quite different. Is this a new idea you are exploring?

    hi Eric: yes, this is a new idea. I don't think I have seen it done this way. I have made pieces that had openings, but not this way. thanks for commenting .

    It may take a bit to figure out how you might have done this one Michele. Unless it was segmented and you are trying to confound us by adding the color.

    Baxter, no confounding here. As a matter of fact a segmentation would have been laborious and require more patience than I have..200+ little pieces glued in even spacing? Naw not for me!

    For those of you who would like that color for something you wish to make: airbrush color by Jacquard called metallic blue.
