    Having more fun

    Once again having more fun than I should in the shop. This one started out a little different, I didn't like the base I originaly turned, so I cut it off and tried a few differnt things than settled on this. The bowl is maple with a little cherry on the bottom, the base is bubinga. I left the base a little to chunky (will try again)but I needed the weight as this was an attempt to see how thin I could turn a bowl. The bowl section was so light I though it needed a little ballast. The base is also turned.

      That's pretty neat! I like how the base contrasts in form and color.
