Well I managed not to break another one. This is weird! I'm now driving down the road looking for "fire wood" and fallen trees!
This is another from my friends burn pile. I think its maple. Some are with flash some or without.
Critiques welcome.

Josh - congrats on getting the hang of this bowl turning thing! Another good looking NE!

Only suggestion I can make is to start working on creating a continuous curve from the lip of the bowl to the foot. If you look at the photos of your NE - you will note that the sides are fairly straight. What I am suggesting is to turn that into a nice curve on your next bowl and see how you like it. Personally, I find them easier to turn and just a little more pleasing to the eye!

Have fun! Looking forward to seeing what you turn next!

Good suggestion, Steve. But it's still a nice bowl, Josh! You're gettin' the hang of it!! You're also going to get spider bit, if you're not careful, running around all these firewood piles. :D

Josh, practice makes perfect! Looks like you have the tool control, and now comes working on the form. It will all come together before you know it.

I can attest to that! :D:)

Funny you should post this at the same time as my spider thread Allen. Figure the odds of that!!:eek:
