Nice bowl and some pretty wood too, turned out well if you ask me. I like the little foot you put on the bottom also, nicely done. Great finish also.

Nice piece! Love all that curl in the bottom and the bit of splating sure gives it some nice contrast...Bill...

Great job. The turning and the finish are beautiful. Curious, what did you fill the splits in the bottom of the bowl with? Would also like to know what your finish is. 8-)

Thanks for the comments one and all. The finish is three coats of Minwax antique oil then a coat of Minwax paste finishing wax. The bottom isn't filled, it's the natural colour from the center of the large limb starting to (rot?) outward from the pith.
