This is my first poplar bowl, and first bowl with bark inclusion all the way through the bowl. 5"x4" sanded to 400 and finished with antique oil and beall buffed. Feel free to critique.

Steven....great bowl! Was anyone at home when you turned it? You only have to turn one with worms at home to appreciate using a full face shield while turning and even then you'll keep you mouth closed and breath through your nose!:D

Looks good, Steven. If I had to critique something, I would probably want a smaller diameter at the base, as in the second photo it appears to be a little wide. Just my 2 cents. Overall, it's very nice.

Nice treatment for some nice wood Steven. I like the rim treatment alot. I like the proportions myself, I think the second pic just has the base covered.
