Sycamore Bowl
« on: May 24, 2015, 07:37:26 PM »
Here is a Sycamore bowl I turned today, I cut this wood myself in April 2012. It has some really nice fiddling in it. I have quiet a bit of this and the fiddling varies.

Sycamore is one of my favourite woods everybody says it is boring but it certainly isn't it can have beautiful figuring.
Very nice bowl by the way.

Love it...sweet piece of wood, simple lines, simple detail with the bead....what more could anyone want (at this point, George might be tempted to add a little colour!)

Nice clean lines and a fine finish, the satin finish works well on it.
