Not sure what to call this, but I liked it, so I thought I'd share.
Criticism, constructive or not, is welcomed :)

I'm guessing you didn't want to see all that pretty grain and birdseye go to waste. But sorta unweildy. I'd keep it for the purty grain though.

Nice stain. I would have put a massive bowl with that massive shank, or just kept some more proportionality there. The forward flow/momentum of the bowl is begging for at least some bend in the shank.

Like the stain, not crazy about the bowl. But I dig the thick shank!
Is that ring a washer? :)

yes to the washer.

I share all the concerns about the bowl and shank pairing. Live and learn.

If you can get that part down, you'll be fine.
