Fine Woodturning by Tony Manella

 

 

#20 Ramone Vase

One of my occasional Ebay purchases, this piece of burl comes from Mexico. The wood is fairly hard and the inside gave me a lot of difficulty for such a small piece, 4" diameter by 4" high. The photo doesn't do this piece of burl justice. The eyes on this piece are very dense. I removed the bark opting for a spiky rim. I used my usual tung oil finish which was then buffed using the Beal system.
