    Default Qld Maple Bowl

    Its been a while since I have had time to get into the shed. One of my friends just had his 1st son and I wanted to make him something special. The grain in this one came up way better than I was expecting from the blank which looked rather bland. Sanded to 600grit and finished with EEE-Ultra Shine and Shellawax. My technique is getting better, not so many tool marks to sand out in this one

    Its about 12cm diameter and 5cm deep. Not massive but hopefully useful for my friends son when he gets a bit older.
