I haven't been on the forum much lately... I tried setting up a permanent booth at the local "Public Market"... Larry came by and chatted a minute or two on his tour de wood this year... but unfortunately the booth didn't work out... traffic was there, but not spending much money... so I've reverted back to my traveling shows and the last two were pretty good...
But thought I would show a couple of the bowls I've done since the first of the year... I actually got them all finished with any of them smacking me in the face... did have one blow up and send wood shrapnel all over the shop, but I was wearing my face shield and was standing back towards the tail stock slightly so none came too close...
The first two are spalted maple with maybe a little ambrosia thrown in... it only about 7 inches dia
Third is a crotch piece from a Silver Maple log... the bowl is about 11 1/2 inches dia.
Forth bowl is spalted hackberry and just over 12 inches diameter
the last one is spalted white oak and about 9 1/2 inches dia.
