Well after buying my "new Oliver" lathe 4 years ago and rebuilding it I finally got around to turning something besides a tool handle. Have not turned a bowl for 20 years so go easy on me. Wood is Box Elder, diameter is 12" and depth is 5". Sure wish the red color would stay but its already turning brown from the light. C&C welcome. Sorry for the poor pics but not real good at photography either. Finish is wipe on poly.

Thanks for the compliments. I still need LOTS of practice with my tool handling. Had to do lots of sanding on this one. Hope to improve on tool technique so as to cut down on sanding. Hopefully it wont take 4 years to get to next piece.
