Woodturning - Cherry Root ball to Amazing Vase

I was given a few of these Cherry Root balls a week ago and was so eager to get one on the lathe as I was expecting to see some beautiful grain .... I wasn't disappointed. So a massive thank you to family friend and donator, Andy!
The piece has been sanded to 7000 grit and finished with a coat of Danish oil and then Wood wax on top once the oil was dry. I wish I could have kept more of the bark on but unfortunately, the wood was too dry and most of it flew off the piece while turning.
Now its that part of the description where I say a massive thank you to all of my subscribers, as we've hit another massive milestone! 7000!!!!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH, without your support none of this would be possible. 10k here we come 😁

Disclaimer:
My videos are for entertainment purposes only. I am still relatively new to woodturning and some of my techniques might not be the "best" or safest. When using any tools or machinery always read and understand safety/manufacturers guidelines.
Yes, I'm aware that wearing gloves while woodturning is considered an unsafe practise. The gloves I wear are tight fitting and don’t have any loose threads. I wear them for the protection of my skin. This is a risk that I am willing to take, however I am still very conscious of the potential danger and I do not touch any spinning parts of the lathe. DO NOT do anything you don’t feel comfortable doing.

Amen- We used to have these skills taught in school for good reason. Our society needs these craftspeople skills- welders, electricians, bridge builders. Etc.. Even the cooking , sewing and dietary skills were taken out.
Possibly because colleges and Universities are greedy.

Hello Harry, you made a great bowl, I like your finish with Danish oil and then Wood wax.
I believe this wood is a grafted part which is usually just above the ground level and causes this kind of deformation.
I also recently made such a bowl from cherry wood, but luckily I was able to keep a lot of the bark on the bowl. Cheers, Hans
