Here is my latest ... big leaf maple burl bowl, 19 x 3 1/2, oil and wax, buffed. Wooden spheres/balls of various species and sizes and surface treatments. Will be in Instant Gallery in Poenix ... unless you buy it first :)

Comments and critiques welcomed.

Bowlman, the only comment I can make is that is some amazing work! I simply don't know how you can turn that many precise objects. And the finishes....

Again, I am humbled, and inspired to improve :)
