    Default Four bowl set from same tree

    Hi everyone, four bowls ranging from 5" to 7" wide x 2" to 5" tall from yellow box logs saved from the fireplace. It was interesting to see how the grain pattern appears with the different shapes.

    Thumbs up

    Yep, nice work!!

    Your point about differeing shapes and the grain is a good one. Don't forget, however that the grain will be different from one part of the tree to another.
