Project Information

I haven't posted in a while so here is one I just finished yesterday. This is the first piece that I was able to use my new Easy Tool Rougher and Finisher on. WOW, what a joy to use them both on the bowl. Those are the only tools used on this bowl. Nothing fancy just one BEAUTIFUL piece of wood. For you locals, I got this piece from Steve The Board Hoarder in Kirkland WA. I finished it with walnut oil and will polish it with the One Way polishing system to give it a little wax to help seal it. You can follow my creations and activities on FB at WoodArt by JR. If you do follow me on FB, PLEASE like my page.
Question, comments or thoughts always welcome.
Thank you for looking

Man, that is beautiful.
How big is it? Not that it matters that much from the pictures.

Steve, the size is 5.5" high and 7.750" in dia. Yes I sell these. My items are in a local Art Gallery and I will add this one to my 20+ LVDTs, bowls, cribbage boards, trivets, wine bottle stoppers and my world famous corkies. Corkies are little reigndeer and horses made from used wine corks. They sell very well at Christmas time as a tree decoration. I'd post one but they aren't made of wood. Go to my FB page and I'll post one there. Woodtick, you won't be sorry with the easy finisher. GREAT TOOL….......

Wonderful looking Bowl! I am glad to hear you like the "Easy" tools. I have been wanting to try one for quite some time now. I have such a tough time getting into deeper bowls with my gouges.

A fantastic burl bowl. You lucked out with that wood. The turning is wonderful also. Must be those tools are as nice as you say they were. Keep on turning, mike.
