Here’s the photos. The bowls came out pretty decent. I need to do a bit more sanding on two of them, plus plugging the holes and then finishing the bottom. My thought with using resin was that I could pour that slightly proud, and basically be done. Unless of course it gets dust or bubbles in there that I have to touch up. But a wooden plug in wood is pretty easy to finish, I think.
And here’s the purple tiger maple. It’s kinda pretty, and the bulk of it is going to make handles for my favorite ice cream spoons (they originally came with plastic handles, which have gotten brittle in the past 40 years, so I’ll be fixing them), but I figure there’s enough spare to plug the holes in these six bowls if I don’t go crazy.
That came from curlymaplewood.com which has pretty stuff. They ain’t cheap, but as I haven’t yet set up my stabilizing rig and I’ve used up most of the stabilized wood I have, I figured I’d get a few treats.
