Well, my first bowl our of figured maple, about 10" diam. A few imperfections, but learning. It had a bigger contoured lip on it, but I caught the gouge while hollowing it out and it flew from the chuck across the floor and broke a piece, so I took it off and made a groove on both side to hide a couple dings. Oops.

The shifter ball is Jobillo about 2.25" diam. I Just need to cut the excess off, put the threaded insert in and epoxy the coin in and polish.

Dave, nice save on the bowl! That is a difficult form with the transition area in the bottom corner. Neat work on the shift knob, too - hope it brings good luck to the vehicle!
