The Salad bowl wedding present

Hello Again,

Remember the big salad bowl that I was making for a wedding present for a friend?  I didn't think it was going to be finished in time for the wedding as I didn't think it would be dried out and ready for finishing by April. Well, it might be dry enough to at least get the sanding done on it.

Here it is right now:



This is the mother of all salad bowls--it's the largest bowl I've made to date. The weight of the bowl has stabilized and that means the water content has stabilized too.

So, tomorrow I'm going to mount it on the lathe and do the finish sanding. I hope I can get it done in two weeks time.

Stay tuned,
VW
