    Spalted Pecan Bowl

    Here is some spalted pecan that I got from Mark, the other bowl blank that I cored is waiting to be finished, it is 12" in dia.

    This one is 13-1/2" x 4" is finished with the Beall buff.

    Man I love this pecan, sure wish we had some around here.

    Mickey has already claimed this one for herself..
