I said "I'm gonna finish this bowl today if it kills me." The bowl said "Challenge accepted."

I haven't posted#hotoffthelathe pix lately because I shattered this bowl last week, justifying my face shield expense. In the kintsugi spirit, I painstakingly glued it back together and completed the shaping today using extra-light cuts over several hours. The glossy Waterlox finish will help hold the glue seams together and minimize movement of the wood over time.

Oooh! A neighbor just texted and asked if I can have some fresh cut walnut logs! I said "you had me at "walnut".

Bowl in the photo is from a log the same guy gave me about this time last year. It had started to crack so I cast the whole workpiece in epoxy resin before turning the bowl. Hopefully this next batch will be more solid.
