    That bowl looks great! The shape and grain makes such a great combo. Nice work. Nice photography and display too by the way.

    Allan,
    A very nice Elm turning. The grain is super and the Walnut oil gave it a great finish as well.

    Allan, Nice! Do you have a view from the side?

    Funny thing - I am preparing a new post I was going to call "Elm box". When I saw your post for a second I thought oops, did I already post something and forget? Ha! Of course I am elderly and feeble-minded so it could have happened.

    I did not take a side view. This is one of four Elm bowls of differing shapes. I have a large pile of Elm cut at this time last year.

    Uncertain of exact variety. Came from Wilbur, WA. Cold winters. Thanks everyone for their comments.
