Looks to be a blister, rather than a burl. Probably healing over that injury that still left a gap on the far rim. No rot, though.

I love the interrupted edge stuff, and you did it well.
Better to follow the leader than the pack. Less to step in.

Thanks everyone! MM, you could be right. I dug this chunk of wood out of a bargain bin years ago. I was excited when I found it the other day!

I'd be scared to turn something like that with the little experience I have. I'd be afraid it'd blow up in my face.
It is a nice piece of art though.

You got a really nice piece of wood and you also did an even better job of making it. Well done buddy.

As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification.  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.
