good work Jeff.

What happened to the round trays?

Abbas, Castro Valley, CA

I posted them them. However, the really big one the 24" warped. It turned out the white oak i grabed was really high in moisture. So the bowl i started out with all got scrapped. I then went back to red oak. I forgot i put that white oak in my drying shelter only a year ago. It still needs another 18 months. So i actually bought some kiln dried white oak now.
So when im on my recovery im taking a ride to a different lumber mill and going on the hunt for some mahogany because I am going to make a firemans badge serving bowl/ tray when i get better. I actually want to make three of them.
