You did it again William. Hollow forms are not my best skill is I do like to learn from others like you. Thanks.🙏

Thanks very much appreciated. The outside is easy, but hollowing sometimes can be a pain, 🤣

Beautiful piece William mate. Yeah Balinese Teak always has cracks you have to deal with but I think the beauty of the wood makes the extra effort worth while.

Really nice piece Will! I’ve never seen that wood turned before, it’s pretty. A really neat trick I learned from watching Kent at “Turn a wood bowl” is to use a small amount of PVA glue and sand it in for non-structural cracks. It really makes them disappear.

[@William_Kenny]

Thank you very much. I appreciate you watching,
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try that in the future
Kind regards From Will 👍 😊

Another beautiful piece, thanks for sharing. I'm still fairly new to turning (about 5 months) and starting to look at hollowing more than 3-4 inches, what tools were you using to hollow after the Forstner bit, and where was that scraper from? Thanks!

[@William_Kenny]

Thanks very much, Max. appreciate you watching, I used the pro hollower from Easy Wood Tools, the Simon Hope Pro hollower, and the Negative rake scraper,

[@MrDrewmcdonald]

Do you ever use friction wax finishes? What do you like about the Citrus burnishing oil?

[@William_Kenny]

I have never tried friction wax finishes but will definitely try it,
The reason I use burnishing oil is it's easy to apply, and it can be burnished dry in minutes, also can also be overcoated with waxes or lacquers if you wish,
Kind regards From Will 👍
