Camphor Platter

[HazzaB]

Hey There,

Found a piece of Camphor in the shed, Haven't turned anything other than pens for a while, so I had a go at this, its about 250 in diameter and about 35 deep. I finished it to 400 wet and dry and then burnished it with shavings, the aroma is beautiful:p, the whole house and probably the neighbours smell pretty good at the moment. Your comments and thoughts welcome.

Hey Guys,
Thanks for the comments
The Paltter is gift to the Minister for Finance and Romance, I got some brownie points for it:2tsup: and a few more because I started the first part of the new TV unit, it will be a three part unit of her design, I will post some WIP pics in the Big Stuff Forum in a few days.

The Plastic bottom was only for photo display, I have to do some work on the photo taking side of things, but we will get there eventually.
