    That's really beautiful work and wood. I really like that plate/bowl holder too, nice and simple and doesn't distract from the object.

    The next two are even better. This tree had a lot of great color and figure. It is some of the nicest and easiest I have turned in a long time.

    That platter almost looks like a landscape (dust storm on Mars). Very cool.

    I'm impressed. You did very well on this. I like the light grain pattern of the maple and its characteristic. Well done on the finishing. Flawless work!
