Not a Turner myself, so I can't comment on the item, but the material is ash. I have been slicing up some ash logs over the last couple of days and the bark and grain pattern are the same. Even the pink discolouration on the original log which I think is caused when the wood gets a bit too warm due to friction when cutting. It makes nice pink sawdust :)

Another podlet, this time silver birch, yet again I must have pushed too hard hollowing and caused it to be slightly off centre as I cut through while shaping the outside, I was surprised that it held together so I kept going and managed to finish it, the kids at school have been learning about disabilities and physical imperfections and how they shouldn't be seen as a negative so in light of that I'm going to start a collection of my podlets that go in this direction and call it the "perfectly imperfect" collection, what are your thoughts on this?
