Well Mate lets see what you have been doing, and as Dave said where are the photos. Or have we got to have a fund for batteries LOL. Mitch is spot on, a light touch is the way forward and not brute strenth.
Cheers
Pete

"DAINTY WITH FINESSE" Glenmore, that conjours up pictures of you working wearing a TUTU!

Finish the bowls complete with worm holes and sell them on e bay as genuine antiques! Don't forget what I told you this morning, photo-shoots or I scrub you from my Skype contacts list, then who would you have to hastle you?

Want to ask you a little favor. Before you burn any of the turnings that have worm holes, post a picture and get a second opinion before you get rid of something that others might think to be nice.We aren't going to eat out of these bowls so as Bernie said it adds character and an artistic touch to your work. If you already burned the bowls, take a photo of the wood. Mitch
