Ambrosia Maple bowl with Danish oil and poly finish

I started on this bowl a couple of weeks ago. I picked up a piece of Ambrosia Maple from the local WC and wanted to see what effect Danish oil would have on it. SWMBO had been working with a couple of pieces of it but didn't want to loose the blue colored streaks from the ambrosia. worked out what kind of shape I wanted and tried my hand at a sharper skirt effect. I had taken my time in applying the Danish oil by a little bit every day to make sure it had time to dry before applying more. The maple was very dry and was pulling in the oil almost as fast as I could apply it. This weekend I finally was satisfied with the color and applied a hand wiped coat of wood workers poly finish. After applying a coat and drying, I buffed it out with a green srubby and applied another coat. I finished it off with the 4th coat. The tool marks were the hardest to hide as the oil brought up the fibers and required working it again to smooth it.
