While Carrotwood (Cupaniopsis anacardioides) is considered an invasive weed in Florida, it can grow to 35' tall and is often used as an ornamental shade tree.
Even though it has very non-descript grain, it tends to be a pleasure to turn (big curlies!) and can be turned quite thin.
This bowl is 7" in diameter, and has been tinted to reveal whatever slight amount of grain it has.
Turned to 3/16" walls and finished with 2 coats GF Seal-A-Cell and 4 coats Semi-gloss Arm-R-Seal .
As always, comments and critiques welcome.
