I found a piece of maple up the street left by a utility crew.
It was a crotch and I thought that I could get some of the feather pattern in a bowl.
So after a couple of hours work I came up with this natural edge bowl.
I almost got the crotch feather across the bottom, not quite. And I knocked off a piece of bark.
It's about 10" across and about 6" tall.
It was green ( wet ) wood so it is sitting in a paper bag in the garage slowly drying ( to prevent cracking ).
There are lots of tool marks because I didn't want to sand it while wet.
When I figure it is dry I will sand and finish it.
