The wood for this bowl came from a neighbor's ornamental pear tree that came down in a microburst. The wet wood was heavy and dense - wonderful. I have made several projects from this tree.
Shortly after harvesting the tree, I rough turned the bowl. The wood was very irregular prompting an extra mount to resolve the uneven bottom surface.
After coating the bowl with green wood sealer, I let it dry about 11 months, periodically weighing the bowl and recording the date and weight. When the rate of change in minimal, it is dry enough.
I was concerned about a branch running vertically in the side of the bowl. This could be the source of uneven drying, cracking, and extreme warping. As it turned out, it only distorted the side of the bowl but was the source of tear out that I had to sand.
The bowl is 9 inches in diameter and finished with walnut oil.
I now can do remote demonstrations for any club, world-side.
Enjoy!
