This is my rendition of a Calabash bowl. Before turning it I did a lot of research on Calabash bowls and found there were many "styles". Mine looks nothing like a traditional Hawaiian Calabash. I don't dislike the looks of a the traditional bowls but didn't like it enough to make one. I found a couple that look somewhat like mine and liked the shape and form better.
As the title states, it is White Oak, is 12" in diameter and stands around 5 1/2" tall. It's quite heavy as White Oak tends to be heavy. It finished out a bit over five lbs. I roughed it out in September and finished it last week.
It only took two coats of WOP to give me the finish I found pleasing.
C&C appreciated.
