Walnut Hollow Form

It held together! This was the first HF I have turned that had a bark inclusion running the whole length. Had to risk it as the grain to either side is highly figured. About 6 in. high and 6.5 in. wide. Four coats of wipe-on poly and Beall buffed. The shape reminds me of a Gemini space capsule.
