Interesting site for bowl turners...

She uses a chainsaw as a coring tool. Check out
each out picture, she has more pics and story behind the pieces.

I wanted to see the Vase, but no images showed, just text at the top of the page. BUMMER,

The pictures don't open for me either, but I think I saw a video of her work at The Turning Leaf gallery in Blue Ridge, GA... they also had one of her bowls on display there... very impressive.

The pics showed fine for me. Amazingly beautiful for such large items. I bet she doesn't turn down to 1/4" thickness either.

I couldn't get the pictures to load while using Firefox. I used IE and it opened up fine. Those are some really big turnings

Yes, I had trouble with Firefox and this site, but IE worked fine. Thanks for the link; that is some amazing work!

Great website. If you click on the picture of the vase rather then the word title it will open. The wording did not open for me, but the picture opened to a slide show. Beautiful work and amazing character to the wood when it is in such large pieces.
