Cherry Hollow Form

3" wide and 5" tall with boiled linseed oil finish.
Largest hollow form I've done so far and 4th done with hollowing through the bottom. Threw every tool I had at hollowing this including making one from mild steel round bar and a small piece of HSS. The side wall thickness near the bottom is slightly under 1/8" going up to about 1/4" near the top.
Beautiful shape, and the muted finish really shows off the grain. Very nice indeed!
