silky oak bowl

this bowl is the third one i've made that hasn't eneded up in the scrap bin. it is finished with shellawax made by ubeaut and its around 160mm at its widest point and the actual bowl bit is about 145 mm across. the wood is silky oak and it was made on the faceplate cos i dont have a chuck and haven't had sufficient time ( and time to buy the stuff ) to make the donut chuck that Gil jones emailed me.

enjoy and i welcome any advice and comments

edit: you can tell by the pool balls that it isn't very big, i think from memory that its about 45mm high but it serves it purpose well.

Nice bowl. The rim detail looks very good. Interesting photo with the billiard balls. Very artistic.

A nice bowl. The photo would benefit from being shot somewhat fron the side rather than straight down. It would give a better idea of the overall design.

you've got a good start stirlo, keep it up. I like the artistic shot with the pool balls, but as TD mentioned, a profile shot would be nice too.
