This one's a win. Excellent color on the bowl.

beautiful. The bamboo fits nicely, the ring on the end of the shank is a nice size, and the flare on the stem is the perfect width. Out of your latest work, I like this one best!

I think this one is my favorite. Is the ring yellowheart? I got some in recently I've been wanting to try.

Nicely done. Although for me the colours do not work.

On the left hand side of the shank there's a little divot as if you started with a different piece of bamboo, cut the divot to match that piece of bamboo, then selected a different piece.

What's the story of the divot?

The story about the divot in the shank is about the story of the divot in the bamboo, I'd say. Look closely.

Hmm... I must be missing it. What I see is the divot in the shank followed by the bamboo, but no divot in the bamboo.

In the second to last photo, I see a ridge in the bamboo where the divot should be, followed by the valley of the divot in the shank. :?:

it is not a commission, but it already has a place to go.

I didn't change the bamboo in the process. there is a divot in the bamboo, just not that big. :wink:
