John I have to agree I like everything about it too. Very nice work and whatever wood it is is nice too.

[Mark Cothren]

I agree with all the others... this is an excellent turning - great work!

[John Miliunas]

I love the form and the finish looks "soft". The bowl just begs to be held! Beautiful work, John!

[John Hart]

Y'all are going to make me blush...<--See?

Hmmmm...I usually reserve that for when I'm caught doing something that I shouldn't do. Anyway, thanks much. Hopefully it doesn't crack or warp badly and I can donate it to the auction at the end of the month.

[Mike Ramsey]

Very nice bowl John! Love the shape & finish...looks like it
should have Gold Fish in it!

[Ed Scolforo]

Beautif form, John, and enviable thickness!

[Jim Becker]

"Creamy"! Very nice, John. Good stuff.

[Glenn Hodges]

John, I do like this design. The lines just grab one's attention.

[Rich Stewart]

That's a great one John. I like the rim especially and how the whole thing blends into the base. I know how nerve wracking it is when you are getting thin, you know you are getting thin, and you know that the slightest little boo-boo is going to turn it into confetti. Way to go! Beautiful piece.

Very beautiful work, John. With the little brown flecks, I would have guessed birch. Nevertheless, photographing this beautiful piece sitting on your chantilly lace smock just makes this piece dance.

UPDATE: Second thoughts on the wood -- I saw the close-ups on your other thread and it is not birch. I do think that a chantilly lace smock is perfect for those special turning occasions.

Chantilly lace smock? Care to model that for us John?

[John Hart]

I'm sorry guys, no modeling today. My Chantilly Lace Smock is at the cleaners. I got some...umm...stuff on it...and it is a fright.

But thank you all for your kind thoughts. It is quickly becoming my favorite piece and still has not shown a warp.....yet.

GREAT BOWL, fits real nice with the lace! Skip

Hey John, I'm a bit late on the trigger again but I like the form of this bowl especially the lip. Color is nice and being thin gives it that somewhat delicate look. Good work Mr Hart!!
