G'Day Folks,
This is a camphor laurel bowl I made yesterday, approx 10" dia by 21/2" high. Finished in No4 friction polish then wax applied with very fine wire wool.
Regards,
Cam

Very pretty bowl. I cut some camphor for the first time last month. What a wonderful smell and pretty wood also.

Nice bowl, always like working with c.l.
How do you apply the finish wax with wire wool?
Well done on the bowl:2tsup:

Smiife,
i use 'oooo' grade wire wool scoop some wax out of the tin with it and burnish the bowl with it, then wipe off all the excess with a rag and then polish it briefly by hand.
