This is a bowl I did from a maple burl that I picked up at my last show in Farragut. One of the farmer vendors also runs a sawmill and had some oak burl that he asked if I was interested in... it was really nice burl, plus he had more at the mill... we drove up to look at the wood.. got about 10 pieces of the oak burl for about $60, plus this Maple burl for about $10... the burl had some bark inclusion that I couldn't take out of the foot and a little on the side. The bowl is 7 1/2 diameter by 5 high. Finish is polyurethane.
