I came into a large amount of maple burl recently...green.....fresh cut and sealed......My wife has never been too excited by bowls or NEs that I turned....she's more of a "what function?" person.....Until I brought this in last night.
It's a plain utility shaped bowl...I"m guessing 6" wide 3" high wall thickness 3'8"............I rough turned this 4 weeks ago...DNAd it and it's been wrapped in 2 layers of newspaper for about 3 1/2 weeks....It's not finished ...I need to turn the tenon off the bottom and sand the bottom. Wood....maple burl with some burl...a bark inclusion on the bottom.....some stripes....
Whatcha think?
