slanty top'd oak form

[George Watkins]

hello folks

here is an oak form that I finished recently

5 1/2" wide 9" tall

Awww, come-on George, we can't see your face in this one!

A good shape and the idea of the 'slanty top' makes for an interesting counterpoise.

Looking at the little of the inner surface that's visible, I can see grooves. I doubt you'd leave tool marks visible so it this a new 'internal texture' you're working with?

Is that an undercut rim I can't quite tell from the photo?  If not and bearing in mind I'm a newbie I think it looks a little heavy.

Lovely shape George and the slanted top sets it off!!

Hi George,
Very nice form and finish, shows off Oak to its best.

thank you for your comments

Brian: they are a deliberate texture made with the hollowing tool to reduce sanding and provide a visual contrast.

Paul: no its not undercut, it’s just a normal form with the top cut off at a slanted angle
