    Burr bowl

    Well at least the outside is near there had to give it a good soaking with sander sealer as some areas are a little soft. This is a rough turned piece donated by Frederick of this forum. I think I also inherited his camera skills(New computer so getting use to it). I just needed to turn something.

    new boy so be gentle. Spalted alder big ben.
