I just finished turning a bowl 8" out of himalayan cedar (wonderful stuff to turn and smells a lot like camphor wood) limb root piece. Bowl turned nicely and have a bit of bark inclusion around the middle of the piece.
Being a fairly new turner, I decided to finally take the plunge and wad a sock over my chuck, put the finished bowl over the sock and bring the tail stock up against the tenon to part it off. Worked well, as you all know it does. However, I left some marks in the bottom of the bowl. Not deep, but looks like I did not sand all the gouge marks out of the bowl.
As I said the bowl is finished (shellac and wax). What is the best way to polish out the marks out of the bowl bottom? I have a small (a 2" and a
3") sanding disk I could use. I was just wondering if there was a better method before I hit it with the sanding disks.Thanks
