Nice work as always, the spalting / patterns in the wood are beautiful.

I have learnt the first rule of woodturning.
The internal diameter should never exceed the external width.
Nor the internal depth, the external height.
Does that make me an expert now ?

Masur birch, eh....amazing timber that always delights, but I fear that it's getting priced out of the market. You've done a fine job there, Woody.

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.

...that's got to be the best way, I think, with Masur....I keep watching pieces and just occasionally a piece seems to slip under the radar.
