The bowl that won the fight...

[TellicoTurning]

I also posted this on another forum... this is a spalted maple bowl that flew off the lathe and blacked an eye for me... I think I posted the black eye earlier, but will show it along with the bowl...
caution to everyone... WEAR YOUR FACE SHIELD.

Looks good, I've had black eyes with less to show for it.:biggrin:

Sorry you got a black eye, but at least you got a great bowl to show for it.

[diamundgem]

Boy!! Thats really a honey. Now tell us the truth, What did you say to her

 

[broitblat]

Well, you may have got beat up some in the process, but I think you won the fight 'cause you tamed a wild piece of wood into a beautiful bowl.

good bowl, great shinner, glad that is all it got and not the eye ball.

 

[greggas]

Did you have a face shield on and it broke through it or were you not wearing a mask?

Glad you still have your eyes...and a nice bowl

 

[nava1uni]

Bowl and the eye are both shiners.LOL

 

[fernhills]

Very Nice Bowl Chuck.

Looks like your spalting too.......:wink::biggrin:

I hope you eye is getting better. Did the bowl survive?

 

[Phunky_2003]

Thats one very fine bowl. That eye looks painful.

 

[gad5264]

OUCH and thanks for the reminder. Sorry you had to experience that.

 

[Glenn McCullough]

good thing the bowl hit somethng that it couldnt hurt. Any where else would have broken that beautiful bowl!!! nicely done on both counts.

Chuck hope you are better, the bowl turned out beautifully, what a great chunk of lumber, Like Neil said I've had black eyes for a lot less than that.
