8 Inch Maple Bowl

 

This is a Maple crotch-wood bowl (Y-section of a log). There's a bark inclusion right down the middle of the bowl, and lots of crack, which I bonded with black CA glue. This wood was semi-green, only drying for about 6 months instead of the two years it should have dried. There's some warping starting, which will continue until the wood is dried. It's a fairly ugly looking bowl, though to some it may have a certain rustic charm. I've some other crotch wood I hope to have better luck with.
