A neighbor cut down a cedar tree and let me take some. I made this hollow form to give him as thanks for the wood.
Pretty easy to see why I LOVE turning cedar. The colors and figure in this piece are spectacular! It is about 4.5" wide and 3.5" tall. The hole at top is 2" wide. I sanded it to 1500 grit and applied Danish oil. Except for the bark inclusions, it feels like fine silk. You just want to run your hands over it and when you do it warms to the touch.
@tdotrob Niiice! Well done!
@tdotrob That looks soft. Nicely done.
