Howdy all, I am very new to turning. My FIL gave me his Delta lathe a couyple of months ago and that is all I do now. It seems all the other tools in the shop are only used to prep wood for the lathe. Don't be fooled...this "vortex" thing is very real. Here is my fifth bowl attempt. It is live oak, 7.5" dia. and 1.75" tall. Thanks to all in the creek for giving such good info and tips. I have learned alot from you.

Looks like you got the hang of it. The big trick is just getting the hours on the lathe.
Your bowl came out very nice.

From what I can see, it looks very good. How about a profile of the bowl?
