I just turned this Butternut (white walnut) bowl. It is only my 5th or 6th bowl I've turned and I love the grain and color. I finished it with shine juice, but replaced the boiled linseed oil with walnut oil. It is approx 16 inches wide.

Nice color and attractive grain.  I've never turned butternut.

Does it turn like butter?
We do segmented turning, not because it is easy, but because it is hard.
