Here are a few pics of my 2nd keeper bowl. I tried a couple of things different this time, some successful one not so much. After watching a Lyle Jamieson video I tried push and pull cuts as he described them in an attempt to minimize tear out. I think some progress was made with the effort. I also tried a glue block with a face plate this time. It worked but seemed more trouble than it was worth. As for the bowl itself it's not much different than before but I did put a rim or lip on this one. I think the wood is mahogany but can't be sure. Enough of bowls for now, I'll probably continue with my lesson plans and more spindle work with the skew. I might also try to resurrect the Al Basham hollowing equipment that I have.
