Wood Turned Plum Bowl

Three years ago I scored some big pieces of plumb wood.  I turned one of the pieces in to a bowl blank with the intention of making a live edge bowl.  As I let the bowl dry it cracked in a bunch of places.  Before finishing the turning on the bowl I filled the cracks with resin.  I then did the final turning on the bowl with the resin in place.  Except where I lost a few pieces of bark the bowl turned out really nice.  I also carved feet for the bowl instead of a rimed base.
