OK. I know. Only part of this is turning but I put it here anyway. And, yeah. Maybe my sense of humor is a bit off. I based the width of this on a 2 holer. The width is around 10" with a depth of 9" and a height of about 12". It was sealed with boiled linseed oil and given another coat. The wood for the outhouse was done with elm rough cut. The bowl is bodark with a diameter of 6", a height of 3 1/4" and a depth of 2 1/4". The capacity of the bowl is 2 1/2 cups. It was sealed with walnut oil and then finished with wax based on walnut oil and carnauba wax made by Mahoney's. I was already asked why there was not a crescent moon cut into the door. Actually, I have used many outhouses in my time and never saw one with the moon cutout so I left that off. Might add that for the giggles of it on the next one.
