I made this bowl as a thank you to my boss. He helped me cut down a silver maple tree on his property that had 6 good sized burls on it. This bowl is from one of the burls. The bowl is about 10" in diameter and 4" tall. The wall goes from less than 1/8" at the rim to 1/4" at the bottom. The bowl is finished with 5 or 6 layers of wipe on gloss poly and then two coats of spray poly. Your comments and critique is very much appreciated.
Darren, thanks for you comments. I used spray poly because I was getting very small lines when I wiped on the poly. I thought I'd try the spray because I had it available. I don't care for the spray on. Too easy to get runs and / or orange peeling. Live and Learn I guess...lol
Very nice, the voids make it stand out as well and you have a very nice finish as well. You did an excellent job Darren, your boss will treasure I'm sure.Wizzy
