Oak Bowl

[silver]

Thought I would share this with you, had a request to make an oak bowl to math their oak furniture, quite specific in what they wwanted.

Large and flat bottomed.... She liked it... thankfully..

C&C welcome.

just under 13" diameter and 3" deep. (Outside measurements).



Bottom turned flat as requested..



Looks like a top hat "init"..

Be gentle on me not done any turning of this size for a long while..

If that's what the customer want eh. It is so very well turned and finished, and no foot suits the shape.

Lovely looking bowl and the finish look good as well. What did you use for the finish.

The customer is happy what more do you want

Silver turns to told IMHO when you make to suit the person who requested it then it is a sure thing glad it worked out for you, like the Oak theme.

Kind regards Peter.

Like it Eamonn that is one mighty fine bit of turning the hardest bit as any bowl turner will know is getting a good flat bottom and that you have done to perfection mate bloody well done

Excellent job Eamonn. And if the customer got what the customer requested then all the better

13 inches in oak Eamonn that's triffik and with a triffik flat arse too.
Lid dipped init?

Who are we to question what a customer wants. You have created a wonderful finish on it Eamonn and it looks the business !!!

Very nice Eamonn. Deliver whats ordered and you'll get more orders. Oaks is notoriously difficult to finish but you've managed to do it very well.

Nice one Eamonn the bowl looks very well turned and with a nice finish. I really like turning Oak bowls and the bigger the better.

I like to make them as chunky and rustic looking as possible. I have quite a few large blanks that I must get around to doing.
