I'd make sushi platters - I think htere is a photo of one in the gallery on
my web page (www.wbnoble.com) - if not, take 8 inch long section of the log,
saw down the middle (right through the pith), mount on lathe with the flat
part facing headstock and turn a foot and graceful curve - foot will act as
tennon for chuck - reverse, shape top (don't get whacked by hte edges), sand
and finish

I have a 3 foot long and a 5 foot long piece of cherry log that I didn't
scrap when I was trimming a fence row. My total experience with bowl
turning is one 9 inch diameter simple bowl of willow.

What might one make from the subject logs? I cut them about 4 years
ago. I painted the ends of the larger immediately, but not the other one.
There is checking on that shorter one, but not too bad. I'll saw into it
when it thaws.
