It took me a while to find some Purpleheart, but with all of the suppliers only doing mail order, I took the plunge and bought it...

This was my first mistake!!!

I usually like to hand pick the wood I use. If I had taken the time to examine this closer, I would have seen that the supplier had used extra wax to hide the crack! This turned what would have been a 6 inch bowl into a 5 inch bowl of a different shape.

It turned out ok, but it was a lot of work!

*If you shop through these links, I may receive a small commission. The price is the same for you, but it helps support me as a beginner woodturner in my quest to get a better lathe to make even bigger projects, and I really appreciate it!
