My first turning from Box Elder. What a great wood to turn! This came from a blank I'm hoping to get two more HF's from. This will be the least flamed of the three.

Box Elder with Blackwood pedestal and collar. 7-1/2" x 3-3/4". SAC, buffified.

Kinda difficult to get decent pictures of a tall piece like this. I tried to get the best viewing angles.

Comments and/or critiques welcome.

Neal, my compliments, gorgeous piece of work, the pedestal is perfect executed. Your turnings are always very beautyful. Great work.

Beautiful work Neal!!!

Love the wood, the color contrast and all the detail work on the pedestal! I like the sense of height the form projects - looks to be 14" instead of 7 1/2".

Very nice work! Looking forward to seeing the other two hollow forms from the box elder!
