If you care to look under Earl in the alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking I posted my latest bowl. After all my comments about being a newbie and all the great help I've gotten here, I am rather proud of it. I was going to try to turn the inside down real thin and get the bark wood to drop out and leave a space but I chickened out. Figured if I got this far, I was doing well enough. I still have a tendency to push to hard and I know I would have pushed through and got a catch and broken the bowl.
Also, hadn't tried the picture posting here so it was an experiment that I think worked.
