    Bradford pear. This was the base cut-off of a sucker branch which grew tight to the main trunk, so not truly a crotch piece. It came down in an ice storm several years ago and was at the curb, free to take. I sent it to Phil because I knew there was something gorgeous and unique in it, but I couldn't see it. He discovered what it wanted to become!
    Thank you, Phil, for revealing what an ugly chunk of firewood can be! Much like Cinderella and her Fairy Godmother...... 😜 😉 Thumbs up 👆

Who says a clock can not have curved hands riding over the bowl? Then you could do the vertical mount you were wanting!!! You just did not realize you were turning a clock, not a bowl. LOL!!!

    You sure brought out the best of that FOG wood Phil . I was on pins and needles watching you go down that bowl . That was a great save using the tenon .

    A very small pin hole but so what. It’s not like you’re going to eat cereal out of it! Very cool looking piece. 👍🏼👍🏼
