10" Walnut platter

Great job, the Sap wood really gives it visual interest. I love Walnut but this makes it pop. Well done

That's a great looking piece. The sapwood inclusion really kicks it up a notch. I always like Walnut.

Very nice looking platter. The grain pattern looks like water flowing across the sand.

Beautiful shape. Even the simpliest projects look magnificant when made of walnut - real classic.

The dark color is great. I imagine that where these trees grow in abundance people burn it for firewood. In the North it is gold.

Thanks everyone. I was told that turning is addictive and now I can attest to that fact.

Great job of making something beautiful with a piece of firewood (for some).

Really very eye catching. What did you use for your finish?

jtriggs · Jul 16, 2017

I use Myland's High build friction polish. Easy, fast and looks great.

looks like you can see the tree standing, looks like a limb growing around that sap pocket
