D_Allen home \| projects \| blog 495 posts in 953 days #4 posted 542 days ago	Thanks guys. lew, that cup is oak and maple. Oak is nasty stuff to turn. It splinters real easy and a catch can blow out a big chunk of it quickly. I think I sharpened the scraper about 6 times getting it hollowed out. The mahogany bowl was easier but it is so dry that the dust went everywhere. -- Website is finally up and running....www.woodandwrite.com
