Highly figurative Huon Birdseye Bowl
Hi
I just purchased this and an arbotech blade to do some freestyle bowls. This has intense birdseye in it unlike any I have seen before, I cut this out of a large Huon Pine burl purchased from Mike and Sandra in Burnie email [email protected] ph Mike 0419182800 Sandra 0418182800. I have some more bowls cut out from the same burl (one huge one 650mm long) but have to wait until the dry out a little more.

I notice youve filled a crack in it, what did you fill it with?

Hi Thanks, i used epoxy resin mixed with huon pine dust and white powder. i wish i had left it clear as it is extremely difficult to match the colour especially as there is so much colour variation in the bowl.
