This was a very fun experiment trying it a cornered bowl. It's one of my favorites so far. Wipe on poly finish.

What kind of wood is that? I know nothing about woodworking but this looks amazing!

Its padauk, I haven't used it before, but I have heard that it will lose some of the rich orange-ness is has over time. It turned nicely though.

Yes, it will turn to a rich brown. Still beautiful, though.

Gorgeous.

Is padauk dust something wild?

[–] Godwins_Law 1 points 1 year ago

It really is, my whole driveway was red dusted.
