    Default Natural Yellowbox Bowl

    Hi all, These Australian hardwoods are, umm, hard. This bowl measures 6 1/2" x 2 1/2".
    To me it looks like the wood has boiled and overflowed over the top like lava. Sorry for the amount of photos, but every side was different and I couldn't decide which photo to leave out. Harry

    Wonderful stuff!

    Your description of boiling over is spot on.

    Nowhere near too many photos.

    I think most people would have turned the whole thing.

    I've said it before (and will probably say it again) - I love it when people have the courage to leave most of the wood natural.

    It looks fantastic.

    That is one beautiful bowl. Not a volcano for me but a smelting pot of gold.
