This blank was a lot bigger than I started, but a few incidents meant I had to turn it a few times to get the resultant project which is more of a snack dish than a bowl. I don’t particularly enjoy turning oak as I haven’t yet found a way to successfully turn it without excessive tearing. Nevertheless here is the finished article, sanded to 320-grit and finished in friction polish with a top coat of wax to make the grain a little more tactile.
