Piece #485 – Elm – 9.5″ by 3.5″ – SOLD
The piece is sanded through 400 grit paper. The two black lines running around the outside of the bowl are made from friction using a wire while the lathe is turning at high speed. The dark area between the lines was scorched with a small butane torch. I applied a liberal amount of Boiled Linseed Oil and let it set for 15 minutes, then wiped off the access and let dry for a week. It is then buffed with the Beal buffing system.
