This one was a tough turn, at least on the inside. I wasn't expecting what I found. It did turn out OK but man, I had to work for the result! Finished in shellac.

You sounded a bit disappointed, I found the piece exceptionally beautiful. Lots of sassafras around here in DE. I do love the cinnamony, root beer odor when turning.

I have certainly noted that the wood determines what the bowl will look like. I hope to be able to that in the future too as my craftmanship improves. You have really helped me to up my game. Thanks!

It smells like medicine because it is, or was a commonly used component in herbal remedies, and as others have said, root beer, or sasparilla.
