Chinaberry Bark Inclusion Bowl
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Here is another piece from the Chinaberry that I recently acquired. It is the same tree/wood that I turned the Chinaberry Live Edge Vase. I am very happy with the great color in this piece. I was hoping for some of the same crazy grain that the Chinaberry Live Edge Vase has but that blank was made from a crotch piece of the tree. This is more of a side grain with natural edge and a bit of bark inclusion.This piece was another quick turning and the only issue that came up was a bit of chatter because of the separation in the body due to the bark. The colors are stunning and for this reason I did not use a poly wipe on, shellac coat or cellulose sealer.This piece was simply sanded up to 400 grit. I then used the Beall buffing process with tripoli, white diamond and caranuaba wax. I did use Howard's Feed and Wax before the caranuaba to bring out chatoyance of the grain. I have not done many pieces with bark inclusions and I enjoyed the process to retain as much it as possible.This bowl is a little thicker than the previous vase. The wall is roughly 3/16th” The bowl is 5 3/4” at its widest and is 2 1/2” tall.Here are a few more pics of the Chinaberry Bark Inclusion Bowl. Thanks for looking.
