"I love to work
with what Mother Nature started and gives me to finish," he says. "I enjoy
the whole process, from hunting for the tree with a burl in it through the
seven stages of producing the finished product."
The finished
product is easy to care for. The food friendly epoxy resin preserves and
enhances the natural grain and allows for hand washing.
Jim adds,
"Extreme heat and cold and the dishwasher should be avoided, but the bowls
can be used for salads, cereal and milk, popcorn, candy, fruit etc."
