Name: The Wicked Calabash
Notes: Uses the same curved tenon inlet technique that I employed in the Freehand Calabash
to allow easy pipecleaner passage from bit to bowl - AND shank reaming
with a straight drill bit. I should also note that the bowl isn't
as off-center to the rim as it might appear in the top-down view.
That's an photographic effect caused by the convex shape of the
bowl top.
Positives:
Another large calabash, intended to be completed as a companion to the
Freehand Calabash previously posted but rather derailed during
production by various events here. Why did I call it "the
wicked"? The sandblasting is not only very good, but also rather
bizarre - the depth of the ring patterns combined with the splay of
grain shooting up through them produced a surface which is slightly
creepy looking in an HR Giger biomechanical sort of way. Even the
bird's-eye at the rim looks like tiny twisted eyes. It's an
exceptional ring grain pattern.
Negatives: None. I want it.
