This natural edge Silver Maple bowl was turned from a narrow slice of tree. I took the entire log and mounted it on the lathe lengthwise. Usually, you cut the log in half in the direction of the pith and cut into the side of the log. Cutting into the end grain is a bit more tricky. Drying the wet wood is even more challenging. As it dries the wood wants to move and crack around the pith. In this case the pith was off-center and minimal cracking occurred. The bowl does not sit flat, but that also adds to the interest in this piece. PRICE: $125. WOOD: Silver Maple. SIZE: 12 1/2" (widest) by 2" Tall. WEIGHT: 1 Pound 7 Ounces.
