I managed to save a few pieces from a walnut tree the neighbour was cutting down. Turned to size wet then dried in the microwave. A few firsts with this one. First bowl from wet wood. First natural edge and only my 3rd bowl. Bob Hamilton left a roughed out blank here a few years ago when he was showing me how to use a lathe and I did on durng a Lee Valley course last year. Getting away from just pens and little things. I think I need help I've fallen into the vortex.
