I did it!

I didn't know what I was doing, just that I wanted to make a platter.

I've got to find a better finish than polyurethane. It actually looked better before I put the finish on.

I like it. What kind of wood did you use?

 

[DozerMite]

nice. I use tung oil on some of the more figured woods. Sometimes I mix in a little poly.

Try Dansih oil----I like the neutral color.
Looks like you did a real nice job turning.

Looks good Dale. I like tung oil but it does tend to darken the wood a bit.

looks very nice to me!

Birdseye Maple I picked up on sale from Rockler a couple of months ago.
