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.

That's *beautiful*!

I work with virtual servers and code all day at work so on my free time I like to make physical things you can hold in your hands. Mostly, these days, those are out of wood.
@thereal_renaissance_man I have next week off and a GIANT chunk of cedar rough turned. I plan to core it out into 3 blanks and see if I can make a decent set of nesting bowls. So plenty of vicariousness will be delivered shortly. ;-)
@tdotrob
Looking forward to it! Happy turning!
