    Wink Spalted Ice Cream Bowl

    Based on the overwhelming discussion of the correct size of a popcorn bowl – I thought this would fit in with everyone’s expectations of a proper ice cream bowl – for a single serving of course!

    Spalted White Birch, 11 ¼” diameter x 3 ¼” high, sanded to 320 grit, 5 coats of Minwax Wipe-On Gloss Poly.

    As always, any comments, critiques or opinions are appreciated!

    Thanks for looking!

    Steve your finally getting a handle on correct size. That is just right for a single serving of ice cream. Rocky Road would look great in your bowl. Super bowl Steve, all of your work is great. Thanks for sharing....Bruce

    Thanks for sharing, Steve. I've only roughed out bowls to date but hope to get time to begin finish turning some soon. I like viewing everyone's work as inspiration and to guide me to proper form and finish.

    On deck and waiting - I've got a 10" roughed out cherry bowl with a crack I just epoxied last night (tip from friends here) and two red oak bowls that survived any checking from the DNA process.

    Your work is always top shelf.
    Terry

    Steve....that is a beautiful, one serving, 2500 calorie ice cream bowl. It would not pass Andy's muster, however, due to it's small 11 inch, 2500 calorie size.

    So much to learn, so little time.....
