Douglas Fir Rootball Bowl

Furnished content.
(from Lumberjocks.com)


Douglas Fir Rootball BowlWe had to wait until the lighting was right to take photos that came anywhere near close to doing this bowl justice. Otherwise, this would have been posted a lot earlier today.This is a douglas fir tree root ball bowl. The tree was leaning precariously, so I decided it had to come down. What I didn't anticipate, however, was how deep the roots were. Heck, I thought I could just dig around the root ball and the tree would fall over if I dug deep enough. I guess I could have cut the tree off at ground level, but then I wouldn't have gotten the opportunity to see what the soul of this tree was all about.I gotta say, this bowl was a super challenge. It's 25 inches long by 20 inches wide by 8 3/4 inches high. It also weighs about 30 lbs. It's by far and away the biggest bowl I've attempted.The differences in colors in the photos is due to different lighting during the photo shoot. As usual, pics just don't do the pieces justice, but they're as good as they're going to get.Thanks for looking.TZH
