Hey There,
I just got some Shellawax, and had to try it out, I had this piece of (I Think Olive- Open to suggestions, I've been told otherwise) and when I did the bottom I went too far and didn't leave enough foot for a decent hold with the 50mm jaws, turned the inside with the tailstock pushed up to the centre, and couldn't get the gouge down like I wanted, but I only wanted to try the finish, ( I am Impressed:2tsup: and did a couple of pens just to try it out) the bowl is about 80mm in dia and about 50 high, I have about 1.5mm at the bottom :oo:
I love the Finish and will be using it again, on a better planned bowl or platter, Stay Tuned it will happen in 2011 :rolleyes:
