SWEET!! very nice…I am loving all these “first turnings” coming up on the pulse today…I think it is a sign!!! (dying to turn—-but i need to shut up because I have been saying that for months)...

Congrats on an awesome first bowl!!!

Beautiful. How big is it? What kind of finish? Nice photography too.

Thanks for the great complements .
The bowl is 5.5”x 2.75” I used MinWax wipe on poly
last week I finally got my Powermatic 3520B and just love it Its a Big Big difference from my Rikon mini.
It so quiet and smooth.
Any advice on different finishs is Greatly appreciated !
Thanks again
