Well probably my first anything. I turn mainly to supplement my flat work. This is my first artsy display piece for our hall table. I have a couple of logs split in half waiting to be made into NE bowls for the person I got them from. I also have a piece of ambrosia maple for a bowl. The platter is about 15". It is split all the way in half. I pieced it back together with 3 butterflies on the backside before turning. I wanted to put some groves in the lip/rim but it came unglued from the faceplate before that happened. I want to get better and more creative at this so any comments apout form and wood selection would be helpful. Thanks, Cary
