This one. I make them for friends. I used an 1 1/4" bar (not shown) on this vase.Very nice. I haven't turned many hollow forms but the ones I have I have turned to final thickness immediately. Doesn't matter if the wood is dry or green. They tend not to warp much or crack.
what hollowing rig do you use?
Very nice. Looks similar to my Jamieson rig.This one. I make them for friends. I used an 1 1/4" bar (not shown) on this vase.

Yes sorry I got it mixed up with Black Locust which is also know False Acacia.Lovely form and the wood just completes it.
HOWEVER - don't think Acacia and Honey Locust are the same tree. At least not around here. When I refer to Acacia, I think of the tree in the African savanna and Honey Locust is a predominantly ornamental in our "neck of the woods" (pun intended). I think their heartwoods both have similar coloring but are a different family entirely.
Ahhhhhhhhhhh. Good on e. Didn't know that. Thanks for the info.Yes sorry I got it mixed up with Black Locust which is also know False Acacia.
