Eucalyptus

Turned from Blue Mountains Eucalyptus, very hard but will take a very good finish. This one has been oiled with BLO and then buffed on a loose leaf cotton buff. 9x5 or 12.5cm x 22cm, Second image detail on the rim and the way I prefer to finish the spiral

Hughie,

straight Euc. No burr (Burl) or anything? a wonderful colour compared to the Euc that has gained a foothold over here.

Once again you make us envious of your range of timbers.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!
