    My first bowl

    I turned my first bowl yesterday in a class at Woodcraft. Now I need to buy more turning gouges. It seems like everything I learn takes a new tool.

      Good looking bowl Ken.

      It seems like with the BT you can get away with two to three blades but with turning at least 12 various cutting tools and then we have chucks and on and on. The list seems endless.

            I wonder why they have so many classes there at Woodcraft??



            Thank goodness the closest one is 2 hours away...
