Podacarpus Jar

[Dave Hoskins]

Finished this up this morning. Sealed with walnut oil. Finished with shellac. Yeah, went back to shellac. The diameter is 5 1/2", total height 5", vessel height 2 1/4", vessel depth 1 3/4", 1 1/2 cups volume. Somewhere there in the process I used the tripoli compound stuff.

Very pretty, great job.

Thanks everybody!!!

Wow, somehow I missed this one, Dave. It looks good and I suspect it'll sell quickly.

 

[Ryan Mooney]

Groovy (heh) lid design, goes really well with the jar!

 

[Dave Hoskins]

Thanky! Thanky! Thanky!

Nice little candy dish.... pretty wood, although I have no idea what a Podacarpus tree might look like. Never heard of one, although I did find a reference to it on the web.

My understanding is that it is related to the Japanese Yew. I think it grows around Florida and the like. It is a neat looking wood.
