Here is a hickory HF I did with a ebony collar and finial. Walls are just over 1/8" thick. It is 6 1/2" across and 3 1/2" high. Finished with Antique Oil and buffed.

Another well done piece Bernie. Love the short and squat form. Kind of reminds me of, well ME.

Thanks everyone. It is appreciated. This was a neat project for me as this is the first as one said squat form. Wasn't sure how it would turn out but was pleasantly surprise. I want to try one of these in walnut with a holly collar and finial or some really white maple.

Truly nice work, Bernie! Collar and finial two separate pieces... nice touch! I also like the form. Well done, Bernie.
