Very nice! How about trying this with some figured cherry? I haven’t done much lathe work yet and I can see why it’s addicting. Wood is addicting. I have brought home waay too much wood and still have my eyes on more.

Great look Barlow. The Yellow Birch is what I’m using for my kitchen cabinets that I’m building. It’s beautiful wood.
