Kinda like the hole in Willie Nelson’s guitar. An heirloom. Beautiful!

-- Robert M. Herring

That is a beautiful piece of work! The form really brings out the void in the wood and enhances the entire piece. Great job.

It wouldn’t have been dirty if you hadn’t mentioned it. :-)

That is another beautiful piece. I would like to know how you turn something like that without catching the cutting tool in the void?? Great job and thanks for sharing

I have a “spot” for that

Fantastic ! The way you can look into the vessel through the void totally makes this piece. I could see myself constantly gazing into the void.

Joe, another great turning. Lou, very light cuts and a steady hand. You have to be in control of the tool.

Very nice. Mother nature can be very artistic indeed. Your turning lets us see her beauty.

Joe, this is another beauty. You have done a wonderful job of showcasing what Mother Nature has created.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

Another beauty Joe, I really enjoyed your presentation.

Gorgeous, Joe!!

From the photo, the form appears as a perfect sphere. Did you free hand it?

Thanks everyone.

Loucarb, it’s all about light cuts, sharp tools, soft touch, and concentration.

Lou, I did free hand the shaping and the hollowing.

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.

Very nice looking piece, has a character all its own.

-- Dan Wiggins

Beautiful, steady hand, do you go into a state of being while doing these? A special concentration? Or is it just a process? Are there many we never see? Am I bugging you yet with the questions?

-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

Dude, I really like all your stuff, but between you and mother nature, this is a masterpiece. Incredible stuff. I’m wowed!!

-- Gary, Huntsville. May you live as long as you want and not want as long as you live.

Joe,
Your turnings are outstanding; it’s consistently some of the best work I’ve seen.

-- Gary, Florida

Very delicate turning Joe.
