Very nice turning. Excelent job. Really like the grain in this also.

Keep it up.

Scrappy

-- Scrap Wood's the best...the projects are smaller, and so is the mess!

Sorry Young Broda..
Not an especially colourful piece of Camphor.. nice but not great.
Your turning is very well done though.
Your selection of a turning blank is less than it should be. You have a good EYE. Use It.
I may sound Harsh but only because I believe you are meant for great things,,

Thanks larry,
thats the kind of criticism I want from viewers

this bowl actually came from a large board of camphor that I got; next time I’m going to add some accents going through the wood
hmmm… maybe that rosewood i’v got sitting out there….

Broda, can you try photographing your bowls or other turning projects without using flash? The reflecting light spoils the look of the object I feel. This bowl is another good piece to your credit.

sharad- sorry about the reflected light but i actually do have the flash off, thats just the light reflected from the lamp that i use for lighting.
I need to build a light tent ASAP

thanks

Brody, another great looking bowl. I like the natural difference in grain and color of that one. Only God can create that look ( you turned it into a beautiful bowl). Nice job.
