Carved Maple Bowl

[fiferb]

I worked on this for about 5 or 10 minutes at a time until I got the carving done. Carving was with a powercrafter. The bird's eye was a pleasant surprise after I turned it. There were some small cracks that developed around some of the eyes that I filled with CA and sawdust. Thanks for looking and especially for those that comment.

Beautiful bowl, Bruce. The carving gives it an artsy look.

To use the PowerCarver is looking like fun. I just wish I had the patience to be that still.

Ya done great on both the bowl and the carving.

Patience, an admirable quality when the results look like this, well done!

Great looking bowl. The carving really sets it off. Of course, the birds-eye sure helps as well

Hey Bruce .... very nice!

We must be on the same wavelength. I'm in the process of setting up a highspeed dental handpiece for carving my turnings.
