( bowls turned on the one branch 24 inches high plus the base that was added latter .A bit of a balancing act
But allot of fun to make .

From a technical perspective this is a clear 10 to me. I can't begin to imagine the workholding techniques you used to turn all those bowls on the branch. I'm sure most people will just assume you glued them on somehow.

My wife is not a turner and when I showed her the picture she warned me that if I tried to display anything like that in the house she would beat me about the head with it.

Must be great art to evoke such a strong response.
