Roger Felps brought a spalted Pecan hollow form from wood he found on a burn
pile and face-plate mounted. Tom Canfield brought a natural edged Pecan bowl
and a spalted ash bowl. Paul Hewett brought pictures of his portable
sharpening stations that contains a drawer to hold the tools while the stand
doubles as an outfeed table.
James Hampton showed a Mesquite platter with pyrographed barbed wire around
the rim. He also had two maple platters that featured catches/design
opportunities that were recovered by striking inlays of geckos in pearlized
epoxy. Jerry DeGroot had a mesquite bowl with lots of figure, an
"educational" platter and a bowl that was turned from a catch to a well done
scalloped form.
Philip Medghalchi brought a Black Locust bowl from wood for Washington State
and a Black Walnut bowl with a bark inclusion. A Live Oak burl bowl had a
catch, lost a foot, but the Mesquite salad bowl for a wedding gift made it
without incident. Finish was salad bowl oil on the inside and lacquer
outside. Finally, George Taylor presented his first and last Memosa bowl.
(He sneezed the whole time turning it.) A spalted Pecan bowl with
interesting orange streaks was apparently easier.
