    Mesquite bowl

    I won a log section of Mesquite at my local turning club and here is what I came up with for 1/2 of it.

    The bowl is about 8 1/2 inches in daimeter.

    Excellent job! But I think I would use a different background. That one looks "busy" and detracts from the beauty of that nice bowl--especially in the third pic. The bowl itself is very well done.

    Mike, I think your bowl looks great. I wouldn't know you were a beginner on bowls at all. Great looking mesquite as well!

    Nice bowl Mike. It has a nice flowing shape to it. Don't forget to put you John Hancock on that one!
