This is a cool bowl Scott!! The rim treatment doesn't seem to affect the final outcome of the bowl though. With that rim, maybe a chatter tool would have been a different route. Box is my favorite!

Scott,
Great bowl, great gesture! I really like the embellishment as it is refined, simple, yet stands out as being special. Please keep pics coming as you continue developing the decoration effects !

That ornamental turner just adds a whole additional dimension to ones work. Great rim treatment. I think your friend will cherish that bowl for life! Great form and beautiful wood.

Very nice Scott. I like it a lot. Having the ornamental turner really adds a bunch of arrows to your quill. Looks like you are learning quick.

Great bowl Scott and I really like the rim treatment.
I almost picked up some cedar at the DWR, but I had already gone way over budget on tools and didn't really want to spend on wood when I have a big pile of free wood sitting outside the shop. The smell of cedar was almost enough to push me to it though.

Very nice bowl, the embellishment just adds to an already fine turning.

Thanks for all the comments, everyone. The ornamental turner is definitely a cool tool to play with and really opens up a lot of possibilities for decorating some of my turnings.

Very Nice Scott, good looking bowl is looking even better with the decoration, not overdone, just right ;-))
Have fun and take care

Scott thats fine work. Gotta get me one of those OTs. I have looked at other texturing tools and always been disappointed in the fact that they do not seem to produce a clean cut.
