Lovely Bowl Mark and I love Elephants but that is soooo much better than that black lump you started with.

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Thank you

[@vickiejenkinson2468]

Mark, I think you should have done a video holding the elephant and saying... here is my latest project but didn't realize there wasn't a card to record on. Then the next day, this one 😆. You made a great bowl out of some nice wood. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Thank you

[@luvwud]

Very nice bowl mark. Bet you had a nice layer of dust over the whole shop . Geoff

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Yep. It got everywhere. Thanks for watching.

[@adrianolsen-woodhamwoodtur4980]

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Thanks, haven't turned it yet. May do something different with it.

[@ryanaskew5517]

Chainsaw need sharpening?!

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Lol, just a bit. Thanks

[@briananderson2363]

Beautiful job Mark. Makes a much better bowl than an elephant. (No offense to the elephant community intended. LOL)

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Hahaha. They have long memories.... Thanks

[@billjones393]

As a matter of interest, what wood was it? Anything specific? To think you just destroyed some African’s labour of love carving a stunning house decoration! Elephant’s backside to bowl. Outstanding!

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Couldn't tell. But it had a nice variation between heart and sap wood. Thanks for watching

[@DancingFox6]

I liked it better as a sculpture.

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Thanks for watching

[@johnscarboro5943]

Nice one Mark. Absolute bargain at £3.00. Did you get 2 bowls out of it? 😂

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

It'll be 2 bowls and a few light pulls from the legs. Thanks for watching

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

ANOTHER bowl! 🤦‍♂️

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Lol. Yep

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

@@MarkBeckettRPT oh well better than a rolling pin i suppose!

[@MarkBeckettRPT]

Thank you.
