Camphor smells great and turns well—4 1/4 inch diameter. The other piece is a 7 inch Bloodwood HF—not done yet but the color UNOILED is amazing.

Both beauties!
Wow! That blood wood is startling but I like the subtlety of the camphor. Once you start looking at it you see all the figure and character and it makes it really hard to “visually put down” I imagine this to be the one that people would have problems letting go.
Nice!
You sure are cranking them out lately. Great work!

Two home runs! Museum grade turnings!
I love turning camphor.
We had a camphor laurel tree in our front yard at our previous house and I loved mowing the leaves for the same reason.

Finished the Bloodwood. Finished beautifully. Tung oil. Needs few more coats.
Wow! That's natural color other than the tung oil? Amazing.
Looks awesome!
