Nice. What finish did you use?

I particularly like the calabash although both are a job well done...

I sand to 600, apply LV polymerized tung oil sealer. After sitting
overnight it is dry and then I steel wool it (0000) and apply Hut
crystal coat with a paper towel. After reversing and finishing the
bottom (no tung oil) I buff it with Hut hard wax stick. It gives a
nice sheen but not a plastic look.
