I have worked with and reported on Bocote in both spindle<\/a> and bowl<\/a> formats in the past so I won’t repeat that information here.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Bocote 4.5 x 2<\/p><\/div>\n

This set of 5 bowls in the largest single batch of Bocote that I have worked with and I was quite pleased with it.  Bocote continues to be easy to turn and easy to clean up and prepare for the final finish.  I continued to use Abranet screens for the minimal sanding required because this highly oily wood gums up regular sandpaper in a matter of seconds.<\/p>\n

Bocote 5 x 2<\/p><\/div>\n

I would be happy to work with more Bocote in the future and in fact I got a bulk deal on 18 blanks from West Penn Hardwoods not long ago.<\/p>\n

Bocote 5.5 x 2<\/p><\/div>\n

Those blanks are currently drying in the shop and I look forward to the time when they are seasoned and ready to turn.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Bocote 5.5 x 3<\/p><\/div>\n

I’d give it about five years, so no rush!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Bocote 6 x 3<\/p><\/div>\n

All major cuts were made using the Easy Wood Tool<\/a> system on my Robust American Beauty<\/a> lathe, although I do use Robert Sorby bowl gouges<\/a> for light final passes before sanding.  Forward chucking was in a Nova Chuck<\/a>, while reverse chucking was done using a Nova Chuck with Cole Jaws<\/a>.  Sanding was with Abranet screens<\/a> from Craft Supplies USA<\/a>.  Final finish is Shellawax.<\/a><\/p>\n
