WOW, I like the color. Are you bringing this one to the meeting Monday?

Joe, nice work. I really like the orientation of the grain and the dye looks great.

-- Brian, Lebanon PA, If you aren’t having fun doing it, find something else to do.

Hey Joe

Joe, beautiful job…(I’m totally unqualified to even think about anything critical). The combination of turquoise and the spalting/striped maple give a very cool effect.

Thanks for posting it.

-- Martin, Kansas

Joe, a great piece! May I ask where you find the great turning pieces you use?

-- Rick, San Antonio, TX www.knottyknotty.etsy.com

Fantastic color and grain combination it looks like a piece of Turquoise jewelery.

Great piece Joe! love the black spalted lines with the blue.

“Hey Joe, where ya goin with that gun in your hand” as Jim Hendrix used to sing. Beautiful again, Joe. Hows the traveling turning doing, and answer the mans question, where do you get the great pieces you turn. You just have a pile of them in your barn, right? Or don’t you talk to us little people now? LOL

I think it may be the best shape you’ve turned yet. Form is spot on…

-- Steven

Thanks for all the kind remarks. I appreciate them all.

Dan, I have used leather dye before, but not shoe polish. I do tint my own wax when I have an open grained piece turned from ash, catalpa, oak…

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

Beautiful grain , shape and color , Joe : )

Very striking Joe.
