This was my first attempt at a square bowl from about 6 months ago. It was part of my yellowheart/odd bowl phase/series. I will post its mate shortly
Had a couple of problems during the course of turning it: I had a small corner break off the back side of a wing as I did not have any support on it. I also found out the hard way that the edges of bowls like this are really, really sharp.
I am still pretty happy with it, even considering the rather bland wood.
It was turned from yellowheart and measures 8x8x2 and is about 3/16ths on the wings. The center of the bowl sits about a quarter of an inch off the table.
Thoughts or suggestions?
