Finished but now needs to dry and several coats of hand rubbed finish applied |
The begining |

|
Starting to find form |

|
Taking form |

|
begining to hollow the peice |

|
Hollowing with stabilized boring bar |

|
working on the foot |

|
refining the foot |

|
off the lathe-what now? |

|
beautiful burl-almost done |

|
carved the foot |

|
Ebonized and oiled |

Now the wood needs to dry for a month and bring its own voice to the peice |
