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.
