I finally had a chance to finish the write up for the dried apple hollow form I started posting so long ago. The finished work is at Apple Hollow Form Page 8+ Any comments and criticisms are welcome, not only on the piece but also on the write-up. 
The curl in this section is amazing. I think it was caused by stress during a branch growth.
Is this not cool? I will get back to posting about the other piece soon but I got a chance to start this one from a wet log of apple I have in the shop. Soon I will have a series up about playing with this log but this is just fun. It is like turning in the rain the wood is so green. I am going to lose about an inch off the bottom of this and I think I will have to pull the top back some to fit the new curve and to adjust so the majority of the piths will be on or close to center. It should move dramatically as it dries. I still have to mount it to a face plate, final turn and hollow it.
