[Nolan]

LOL lots of practice doing them but they can bit you if you dont pay attention.

It's beautiful... Those are some big wings on that piece, and I'll bet it made a nice sound when spinning... Like an airplane prop.

Really nice work!

Good finish too, bet sanding that whilst the lathe was turning was nice! Im guessing you power sanded the wings whilst stationery!!

Must have a go at one of these one day, Ive even got the wood ready! Just pens seem to take over!

[LEAP]

Nicely done Nolan. I am too chicken to try a bowl with that much wing.

I remeber it well Nolan. As soon as I saw it, I had an idea how long it had been sitting on your lathe. Really nice work. Someday I gotta branch out and do a few. I think they're stunning pieces of work.

Just Fantastic ...

Nolan ... That is definitely a beautiful piece of work. Congratulations on a job that is exceptionally well done.

I live about a mile from Mark Sillay's home and a bit farther he has a storefront and warehouse that is as full as one can imagine of future burl bowl blanks of amazing species. His wood is from all points of the globe and just exceptional. I just drool every time I go there.

Congratulations again on this one. Ya done good, no, GREAT.

Sweeeeeet!! Beautiful showing of the burl and awesome finish.

I've still got to finish my first bowl. It's lemonwood and it's sitting on my display shelf already.
