    Maple natural edge

    Another one of the ambrosia natural edge bowls. Measures 13 x 5. I had some conversion varnish in the pot left over from spraying a kitchen and just gave it a couple coats of that then buffed. Thanks for looking.

    Another beautiful bowl Mike! Love the natural edge! Great looking finish - really highlights the wood! Is it my eyes our do I see some curl in the last photo on the far inside wall? Pretty wood no matter what!

    Great work Mike! Thanks for sharing!

    Beautiful bowl Mike. Really like the wood and was going to say it looks like some curl there.

    Mike,

    Outstanding, as usual. Was the tree cut down in the winter or were you able to save the bark anyway?

    Steven, the tree fell and lodged in another tree about a year ago. It still had some green leaves on it this year. The bark was loose in a couple of places so I super glued them.
