New work.

Turned this out of the Norfolk Island Hibiscus. It is a form that has been in my head for a while but I need to refine it more. I also need a proper hollowing tool.... :roll:

Nice work ! Great form. Congratulations on finding the norfolk island hibiscus. Most people never see it. If you leave a few bits a little damp for six/twelve months you will get the best spalting.

:iagree: well done.:2tsup::2tsup::2tsup:

What caused the dings in the first photo?

[Charl]

I am not sure where the dings came from. :no: I would love to find some more of this wood though!

Love the shape form
