first bowl

[affyx]

first bowl – turned on shopsmith – sycamore finished with shellawax then johnsons paste wax both burnished in on the lathe


found out that if i fill it with M&Ms the flaws become much less noticeable!

Looks real good, what flaws? I left all my first ones unfinished, they weren't worthy.

[Uncle Cracker]

They are not "flaws"... They are character. Nice job!

[Whaler]

It looks real good to me, nice work.

Just make sure you're not turning bowls with the gouges that came with the Shopsmith. Get a their bowl gouge set or a 1/2 bowl gouge from packard, craft supply or PSI. Turning deep with spindle gouge is dangerous..

Looks good to me JC
