Sycamore Bowl


 Another Sycamore bowl. This one measures 5.5 inches in diameter by 1.5 inches high. Finished with orange oil/beeswax mix. Very nice wood for turning. Lovely delicate grain. Hard wood. Finishes nicely. It would be nice to get some large pieces of this wood.

Eucalyptus Bowl

 

This is a Blue Gum Eucalyptus wood bowl 5 inches in diameter and 2 inches high. From a tree branch that came down in my yard in a storm. I added an incised line just below the rim. The bowl was finished with orange oil and bees wax polished at high speed. Eucalyptus has a beautiful delicate grain seen in the close ups below. (click on an image to see a larger version)

Two Small Maple Bowls

 

I turned a couple of small Maple bowls this week end. This one's about an inch high and 3 inches in diameter. Nice fiddle-back grain in both of these. 

Here's the other one slightly higher but the same diameter. I added a bead just below the rim. View of the inside below.
