Mallee Hollow form
« on: November 15, 2012, 12:35:20 AM »
Mallee Hollow form around 10"x 5" sprayed with a Polyurethane finish. Too much struggle to do other wise the holes arent quite big enough for my hands   :)

Excellent Hughie, that looks like it was a lot of fun to turn.

Do you have a photo of the blank before turning started?


Cheers.

Hughie,

That's an awful lot of air to be turning, it looks stunning.

At least you did not have to guess if the wall thickness was even!

I've still not found anything I can recognise as WoP here in the UK yet though.

WOW ... Hughie,  Awesome: bang on the money ...  nailed this beautifully, if not together as well, that's one large piece an couldn't have been balanced at anytime.

Two words pop up: nerves n steel ...   ;D ...  stunning form and finish ..  now to keep it in one piece, needs handle with care.

Cheers   David
