That is extremely cool! It looks so organic. What kind of wood is it? Thanks for sharing.

Thanks folks-

Trifern: The wood is completely covered in the paint, so in general, it could be anything. In this case, I used amboyna burl (just kidding). It’s some kind of maple.

DAN: The paint and the patina are from Sculpt Nouveau. The paint is Iron B and the patina is done with the Tiffany Green Cold patina. Seems odd that they would call it that, since it causes bright orange rust, but it does cause a Tiffany green patina on copper B paint (I have some, and it’s my next project…

Steven, Wonderful propject. Visually interesting, great design and just plain “cool” to look at. Glad you posted this, perhaps this will get a whole new group of people interested in hollow forms.

Perhaps we can even get a Hollow Form “CHALLENGE” to all LUMBERJOCKS for the Fall or Winter. How about it Martin?

Well DONE!!!

Thanks for the information Steven. I was curious about the wood for turning, carving and sculpting purposes. Once again, great piece.

Hi Steven;

Very interesting project. with great results.

I guess you could use it for a magnet holder.

You must have a lot of patience.

Great idea, first thing that come to mind are a form for making Swiss cheese or a colander for very large noodles.
