This was my first try at bowl turning. My wife and I took a bowl turning course together at Lee Valley tools. It was excellent. My wife has found that she really enjoys turning … hmm now I have to share the workshop :-)

Nice job on your bowl. Sounds like permission to double your shop and get twice as many tools. Thanks for sharing.

Yeah I agree sharing the shop with a wife can be good and bad thing. My wife is my best friend so I enjoy the time we spend together in the shop..except when she wants me to clean it up and then I explain to her that she is only there by my good grace and as the boss I can suspend her privileges. There can only be one boss in the shop at a time :) and since it is MY SHOP in “her house” we seem to mostly get alone on that point :)

Great bowl

btw the house is/was mine, at least on paper <laugh>
