This is spalted Peach with an English Walnut finial. A huge old Peach tree came down after a storm and this was a chunk given to me. The form is about 10" without the finial. It is 1/8"-3/16" thick. My first finial. Not sure I like it......but I think it goes with the style/shape of the form.

      This is a 16” native cherry bowl. Should have taken more, better pictures. It is cery thin- for me. A little more than 1/8” exept for the thickened areas of the rim, which the hand falls to nicely.

    Thank you Cal. The wood was a great piece for this turning. I was fortunate to get it and just finished a week long class with Trent Bosch.

    I was notified that this piece was selected as the cover photo for WOW ( World of Woodturners) - which some you may be familiar with. I am humbled and appreciative of this honor.

    Hickory handled screwdriver.  At a little over 1 1/4" diameter the handle fits my big 'ol bear paws just right.  Sanded to 150 and finished with DO.

    Picked up a load of pecan earlier today.  This wood was taken from the Hays County courthouse, a historic location in Texas.  Hays county was named after Captain John Coffee Hays, a Texas Ranger who fought engagements in both Texas-Comanche and Mexican-American wars in the 1800's.
