Oak Burl

This is my first HF. Got it pretty consistent to 1/8". I think a laser would be helpful. Turned green and soaked, then shellac and lacquer. About 8 1/2" to top of finial, and 3 3/4" wide at the shoulder.

Fine piece Cathy. Getting it to 1/8" especially without a lazer is far beyond my humble skills. The inclusion adds a bit to the piece also.
