    Red Cedar Bowl

    7 3/4" X 3 1/2" Red Cedar. Sanded to 600 grit and poly finished. I found out on this one that the less heat in turning and sanding the less cracks. Comments welcome. This one is for a lady at work who loves cedar.

    Never knew Cedar could look that good. Nice form and a great finish. I am sure she shall love the gift.
    Sometimes we see what we expect to see, and not what we are looking at! Scott
