    Maple burl winged platter/ wall hanging

    I've had this slab of Maple burl for a while, finally got around to turning it. Turned a dovetailed groove around the edge of the bottom for hanging. 23" across by 1 1/4" deep, buffed Antique oil finish.

    Beatiful piece Travis. How do you have time for work and still find time to produce all these beatiful pieces?

    That is outstanding.

    You are right about priorities! Mine are all wrong right now.

    Priorities - unfortunately the paying laser jobs take priority over the fun of the lathe. Wish I could get back to it and finish what I've started.
