WOODTURNING Strange willow, spalted willow piece, between a bowl and a hollow form.

This was not easy wood to turn I haven't had that many willow pieces and I find it difficult to turn as the density of the wood changes a lot. it is also easy to tear out the fibers making it hard to finish. I was trying to keep some of the rough wood near the base which I think is interesting. I was going to put a copper leaf on the inside but then thought that it might be better without it , i might change my mind again. I am a woodturner working on the West coast of Ireland. I use wood that I salvage or find or that get blown down in storms, of which we have a lot of. I try to find ways to show the best of each piece of wood that I get. I hope that you enjoy watching how that happens. See this piece and others on my website https://richardwestwoodturner.com/col...
