    Looks like a lot of color and character in that chunk of wood... I'm not a facebooker, so I'll have to wait on photos of the finished piece.

    Don't forget to put on all your armor! Duct tape could help, too.

    All armored up teeth clinched bowl gouge in hand. Sanded it to 120 then i gave it a coat of Danish Oil.
    It has just a little to much burnt area on the back for me so i may hit that with a wire brush clean it up a little after it drys i'll finish sanding then one more bath in Danish Oil and off to the the buffer.

    And a video of the back:
