Olive wood apple
5 3/4" overall, 1 1/2" dia. bowl, 7/8" dia. chamber
1 7/8" tall bowl, 1 1/2" deep chamber
Hand cut acrylic stem, unknown wood stem ring.
I blew through the top of the stem when widening the airway but was able to cut 3/4" off and remake the button. I know I could have made a new stem but this one was already fit to the shanks pretty good. Next time I'll make the stem ring narrower.
I tried to focus on tightening up the shank/ bowl junction and defining the cheeks better. Not perfect but I think it came out pretty good. The dark stain on the front of the bowl I think is from the wax that was on the block of olive when I got it. It's kind of a shame as the figure is nice on this piece. Not sure if I can try to sell it like that.
Comments & critiques appreciated.
