Loving Bowls !!!

cant get enough of bowls !!!!

Although i need to get my reverse chucking off the faceplate !!!

Really unusual colouring. Is it Iroko? If you could give us the wood (if known) and some idea of the size so that we can have a better idea what we are looking at Loz?
Looks as though you are getting a good finish.
If that wood is Iroko watch the dust, it can be really nasty stuff.

I'm really not sure ! people have suggested Iroko on other bowls from the same plank so i'd take that as a good guess !!!

Sorry Pete, its small - only 4" dia

 

[Bodrighy]

Why sorry? Nothing wrong with small. As SWMBO keeps telling me (she's only 4' 11" Valuabkle presents come in small packages.....mind you poison comes in small bottles as well :lol:

Hi Loz. Most has already been said, and I do like the rim effect. Did you colour it? If so what did you use, it looks very effective.

Very nice Loz
Getting better all the time.

Well done Loz, it doesn't matter if the bowls are 4 inch or 14 inch as long as you enjoy turning them,
keep up the good work.

Hi Loz
I agree they look good, what the wood is I haven't a clue as I usualy stick to local woods and that certainly isn't one of them, the main thing is you are enjoying yourself I reckon you are well and truly hooked.
How did the night class go ?

Was already in the wood, I think it was Chas in an ealier thread thinks it due to light on the plank
