    Default Plate

    This was finished yesterday

    The timber is Crow's Ash and the finish is EEE and sheelawax

    The wife intends to use it as a fruit dish

    Thanks for all your help Jim

    'Tis a nice job. Crow's Ash. Looks like nice wood to spin. Like the way you did the bottom, too.

    Simomatra, Nice job, simple clean lines, well finished both over and under.
    Terry B, crows ash is a part of the flindersia family, a cousin to Queensland maple, silver ash and hickory ash.

    Thanks everybody

    It was nice timber to turn it can be a little hard on the tools as apparently it has a high silica content

    Thanks Jim for answering Terry

    I like the "flying saucer" shape. Good work.

    Hi Sam

    I think the wood talked you into that shape, both are beautiful

    Cheers

    G'Day Jim

    That's a nice dish and I too like the foot. I have been doing a few bits in rose ash (flindersia laevicarpa) and certainly seems to be a nice family of wood.

    Cheers
    Bernie
