[crw-talk] Walnut mania

[Robert Patros]

John,
Very nice symmetry and form in your natural edge. Way to keep the bark intact!!
Your yarn bowl also has great form. Nice job on both, and thanks for explaining your process.

The design in shots 3&4 is not my best design but I used walnut and oak to make a yarn bowl.  I dried the walnut in the microwave till I cooked about 30% of the weight away before the final sawing to size.
