    Default Tallowwood Bowl

    My first bowl for a couple of years. Found 4 chunks of tallowwood under the house. Cut them into 8 square blocks and glued them up. Turned out quite good I think.

    My mistake . Your right, it is Cypress Pine. That distinctive smell threw me off the scent. I knew I'd smelt it before but I still can't remember where.

    The glue is 2 part epoxy.
