Sweet bowl. I love everything about it. The shape of the bowl, the rim, the colors and movement of the wood, every element is just lovely. One thing I see is a bit of tearout on the inside of the bowl. Just a bit more effort could have taken care of that and made this an exceptional piece. 8-)

Beautiful piece! I must have been staring at it for 5 minutes.

Thanks guys. Rev. Doug, I had a terrible time with the endgrain portion of this bowl. It was really soft and punky. I must have poured about 4 oz of CA onto trying to improve the cut I was getting. Thanks for your comments, I appreciate them. I'll keep practising Smile
