Hi Bryan,

  Nothing like running in the new toy, like all the pieces except the colours on the bowls and a touch to much paint to get a subtle outspin of paint/colour.

Cheers Martin

Nice form, complemented well by the contrast of wood colours.

Woody, Laburnum is second only to Yew in it's ability to offer the dramatic difference between growth wood and heart wood. And always a joy to work with.

Bryan, what a stunner, lovely form and finish, love it, pics good too.

As a note, I see 65 as having read this post (5th 23:40) shame more can't comment is it they can't judge a form ...   :o ..
