Nicely done. this form is a great one for turning thin. It is a predicable curve which helps when turning the inside. Great job. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful! I'm just finishing a BW bowl. Not as pretty as yours, sorry to say.

Just a real nice bowl and the wood and finish are great. Makes you tense getting it think like that.

Looks great. I admire the turning, but am really impressed that you can get such a nice finish on something so quickly. How long do you have to let the shellac cure before you can wax it?

Simple beauty! I love the walnut as it is simple in its grain rather than a lot fo curl or figure like most things, and I would not be afraid to use for some candy or nuts or something!
Great finish,
Jeff
