This is one of a series of bowls that I have been turning for the fall fair I have coming up at the end of the month. The spalting in this log is amazing as all of the bowls from it have this amount of it. The bowl's diameter is 13" with a height of 4 1/2" and a depth of 3 1/4". I like having a relatively heavy base for extra stability. Just a personal preference. of mine. The walls are a bit over 1/2" thick. All of this combined gives me a nice sturdy usable bowl. I sealed the wood with walnut oil as I usually do. I finished it with several coats of a walnut oil/shellac mixture. I have been experimenting with my lighting to better determine how I am going to build my new photo booth. I think I am on the right track with it. Hopefully. Maybe. Could be. Time will tell. Hope you all like it.
