Or "The turner that wouldn't give up"
or Bowl 3.0 ....
The 'now' little bowl... well maybe cup.... has been tossed out of my chuck numerous times. It's blown up. Glued back together. It's almost been almost finished a couple of times. Had more catches than I can ever remember having. Edges have chipped, you name it probably has happened.
I decided I was going to finish the thing if I was a minature! When I chucked it up this time it was out of round and not enough left to true it up. So the foot is out of proportion to what it was, but by golly! I finished it!

3 3/4" dia x 2 1/2" spalted dogwood. With spots that are hard as nails! It was much larger when I first started and it has been a much pretty shape three or four times, but I just couldn't toss it. The wood was to pretty.
