Very smooth lines there Malcolm, having used a bit of Cherry I can imagine that the thickness and finished feel go well together in the hand.

Very nice Malcolm, nice design and suits the timbers character as well.

PS - I do like it. :lol:

 

[Doug B]

I like it very much Malc.
Are you thinking of entering it in a certain February competition ? :lol:
I was hoping to turn a piece for it this afternoon, but sorting the central heating out got in the way

Hi John B

It took me just over an hour to make and these type of platters I do fairly regularly :lol: :lol: .
I also do a lot of Beech food bowls about 8" X 3" they take me about 3/4 of an hour, we use them for eating stews and soups out of. they keep food wonderfully hot, far better than any porcelain etc. I will get one on the forum when I get back from Devon.

That is lovely Malcom, the shape and finish really compliment the grain in the timber. Good job
