Here is a selection of bowls that I turned on record lathe. I have built up the collection over the past few months. Most of the bowls are made from Spalter Beech from a local saw mill. I get most of my inspiration from what I see in nature. I believe that wood is a living material you have to find its best features and work with them. I hope you like them

Another nice collection of turnings. I like the look of the spalted Beech.

Very nice…I’ve been doing some spalting on my blanks too….interesting process and nice when it works….those bowls have really nice figure in them….and you did a nice job interpreting the shapes to go with it….
I Haven’t had a chance to try beech yet….but will definitely add it to my list…

hi beech is not a easy to work with it has too different density off timber one hard one soft the hard side heavier makes the chisel jump a lot makes it very hard to get a nice smooth finish
