Thanks, Pottz. There was a time I never thought I’d do rustic bowls again, but I guess I’m on a kick!

Nice Van!

I was thinking “shoes” before I read your post 8^)

Great thing about these are each one is completely unique and the size is great for a table piece. They should be great sellers!

Van, I’ve admired your use of burl on your projects but none more than the bowls.

Where do you find burlwood? And what does it look like before harvesting?

The bowls are looking really nice Van, well done. Look up Dough Bowls, they seem to be a hot item, at least in my area. Maybe you can turn one of your bowls into one, but check the finish.

I’m supposed to go fly fishing this Wednesday… I’ll try to remember to snap some pics.

I find burls and galls while I’m fly fishing. I’ll try to get some pics!
