The coolabah burl platter was completed to accentuate the natural grain and colour of the timber so it would be an aesthetically pleasing piece within my dining area. This platter was turned by using a faceplate, with a wooden faceplate attached with masking tape. The chisels used were a bowl gouge, a detail gouge and a scraper. It was then sanded and coated with Organoil Hard Burnishing Oil. This piece will be the major feature on my new dining table, fulfilling its purpose.
