First bowl

My first attempt at turning anything larger than a pen. Maple and padauk, 10" across and about 1.5" deep. Hardly museum-quality, but it's a start, and I learned a lot in the process.

Boco, I'll let you know when (IF) I make a
bowl that will match yours!

Looks GREAT!

Well done. All this turning going on, I've got to get my butt in gear.

One word of caution, it's addicting!

Just like the model 10 bug bit me years ago, the turning bug bit me too!!!

With "Sharp" tools, it's a lot of fun.....
