First Bowl

[EBorraga]

Well with the help of a good friend "Smoky10" also known as Tom Stover I actually made a bowl. Not really for sure on the wood. I was told it was Sycamore but really not sure. Thanks angain Tom.

All Comments Welcome.

Johnny, I'm a very lucky guy. Over the past two months I have met a lot of good people. It still amazes me that these people are willing to help out. If you would of asked me 6 months ago if I would ever turn a piece of wood. I'd of told you "you've lost your mind". Because of my medical situation I'm able to really spend a lot of time in the wood shop, which I'm grateful for. My eyes have truly been opened to a whole new world.

Ernie,

I think it is a great bowl. I admire that you don't let medical issues limit you and your abilities!

It's been almost 3 years. It took almost a year for me to really feel like I could start leading a halfway normal life. But having to go to dialysis 3 days a week is still a reminder for me. Just crazy how your life can change in an instant.
