Spalted Maple Bowl Blank #108
Spalted Maple Bowl Blank. 10” x 3.625”
The wood for this maple bowl blank has been air dried and double milled. The tree was cut down and cut into manageable pieces. I then cut the green wood into 11” rounds, waxed the edges and let them air dry for close to 2 years. At that time, after the rounds slightly warped during drying, I re-planed, re-cut and re-waxed the rounds. The rounds should be dry and ready for turning.
The maple bowl blank has a small bark inclusion and some bug holes in it. Please look at the pictures. It also has a center hole in it for easy alignment on your lathe. The fact that I double milled the wood, should make for smooth turning with little wobble/chatter.
