I just turned this tonight.
It's a new blank I saw at Woodcraft. It's made using a burl end cap (don't know what wood is, but it looks like Teak burl-any guesses?). It wasn't too difficult to turn and created an amazing effect, once I figured out where best to make the cuts based on the depth of the burl into the acrylic etc.
I debated the finish and in the end went for finishing the acrylic as I would a normal acrylic and sealing the wood with BLO.
Turned out awesome! Expensive blank though at $20. How much you think I should sell for?
