Very nice adaptation of a pattern there Frank, my only question is - Does it stay hanging straight when the keys are hung on the end of it? I'm thinking you might need to move the cord in the middle up to the end to stop this happening. (just my opinion though, it's still a beautiful paice of work)

What finish is that you have used Keith, Ive used the super glue and linseed oil finish a few times with similar results but it kinda  gets the throat a bit.
Sam

Sam, beleive it or not, I sanded it down to 600grit then burnished it with some shavings. Then I gave it a coat of sanding sealer and burnished it again with shavings, then there is one coat of Liberon Black Bison paste wax and buffed it up. It gave it a great shine.

Very nice looking bowl Keith.  Thanks for sharing this with us.  How big is it?


DW

DW, the bowl is 8 1/4 inches diameter, it was supposed to be 8" dia but I must have got my measurements wrong somewhere

Charles, you make some fantastic patterns, I have cut a few from a book you published (Wildlife portraits in wood) and I will soon be cutting more of your patterns.

It's not scrolling, but I thought you might like to see the latest project to come off my lathe.

The base is beech, the centre ring is Amerillo and Iroko, the top ring is "YGIAGAM" (Your Guess Is As Good As Mine) If anyone knows what the top ring is made from please let me know as it was an odd piece I found in a scrap bin and I liked the colours in it.
