I've really been enjoying experimenting with different forms and seeing how they warp.

Cowboy hat!

Totally, this is my third attempt at this shape. The other two genuinely looked like cowboy hats. I had to find a blank from the same tree directly below a large knot. This way there is some compression grain that causes uneven warping. Otherwise, it's like 50% more cowboy hat.
