| Dawn from shop |
I think that everyone is anxious for spring considering the winter we've had this year. Looking forward to not have to fire up the shop stove to make things comfortable to work. Yesterday was warm and sunny but this morning it was 2 degrees at dawn.

I've been working on semi-enclosed forms lately and have found the Woodcut flexi-hollower (thanks Phil Irons) the most comfortable tool for small to medium size hollowing so far. For end grain at the bottom, Kelton scrapers are a little more effective.

This is my favourite pot shape so far. Turned from a green off axis quarter sawn blank, microwaved for two minutes, and buffed with Beall system. The gentle warping adds a lot of life to the shape. More to follow.
