    Cherry Textured Plate

    I have had the Sorby texturing set for a few weeks, and decided to get some play time on it. Since my shop time has been cut way down the past few months, I figured a platter would not take much time to finish.
    This Cherry plate was from part of a crotch that had some cracks because of some pith areas. It has been setting around for a while and I almost threw it out in the burn pile a few times. so I put it on the chuck to try it out, and If it messed up it would be no loss. this tool is very simple to use for the texturing and the patterns are only limited to your imagination.
    It measures 11 1/2 wide x 3/4" thick. Finish it wipe on Gel Poly.

      That's pretty neat. It sure does add a new dimension to the piece.

      Nice work. Hard to believe it was almost firewood

          Beautiful job Jim. It's amazing what can be salvaged from the scrap pile.
