When I looked at the first picture, I thought, gee this is kind of interesting. When the 2nd picture came up I was blown away. I did not expect that profile to be so slender and undulating. Very cool, thanks for the post.

I tried to turn a bowl out of mesquite. Too tough.
We did make a few bandsawn boxes out of the supply.
Makes your worm all the more impressive.
Nice job.

You carve in their memory and I cringe when I see what they have done to my stash…oh well, I also microwave them if the piece is small enough (usually not though).
Looks very good!

This is one of those pieces that goes past woodworking…. it’s a true work of art.
