Alder vase

[Ad de Crom]

<TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%"><TBODY><TR><TD colSpan=2></TD></TR><TR><TD colSpan=2>This alder vase is made for silk flowers as requested.
Made it heavy, with a wallthickness at the top of 8mm, up till 15mm down.
Learned my lesson, made a few years ago a simular vase with a thin wallthickness, was needed to fill it with marbles to keep that thing upright.
DxH 135x200mm, finished with blanc transparent acrylic stain decoration.
Cheers, Ad

Well done, Ad, especially the heavier bottom.

That might be an early form of spalting. I found a similar pattern on a piece of hickory, from an upper branch, a few days ago; still on the lathe. Now it has some black fuzzies growing on it. It looks like you arrested it just in time.

Cheers,
Joe
