Cherry burl - pinky - 11-19-2015
This is a cherry burl bowl that is 15" across. I added stitches to it after roughing it out to help hold together during the drying process. Dried pretty nicely over about 8 months. Turned again and sprayed with lacquer.

I really like it, but I do not think I want to see your woods anymore.

That's a really nice piece of wood, and you certainly did it justice! How did you make and install your stitches?

I cut them with a biscuit joiner. I ran ebony through the drum sander til the thickness was right. I then traced a biscuit onto the ebony 3 times and then shaped them with the disc sander.

Really nice, I like the ebony stitches.

Great looking piece, you did a beautiful job. It don't hold soup so it is art, according to Yak.
