Black Jack Vase

[Gary Max]

CRS must be setting in again. Here's a vase that I turned made from a block of Black Oak Burl. It's over priced but someone will fall in love with it someday---just hope I am still around when they do.:wink:

Travis-- we where about 20 miles from the war zone---talk about getting lucky.
Those folks had a real hard time----there are still some without power and it's been 13 days.

Gary,
Nice vase, excellent use of a beautiful wood.
Where is Knifley? I spent most of my life in Kentucky, but I don't know Knifley.

We are located in the in the hills just about 5 miles from town----or the bait shop which ever one you want to call it.
Sitting on the north end of Green River lake just about in the middle of nowhere.
13 miles north of Columbia Ky----14 miles from Campbellsville Ky and 17 miles from Liberty Ky---

Gary,
Been to Columbia and Campbellville, but missed Knifley, I think. I used to live in Barbourville and worked from Somerset to Harland. I still travel through there. May stop and look you up some time.

Very Nice vase, I was wondering if anybody here turned bowls and such. I have not tackled hollow forms YET.
