Hi,
I'm new at turning and don't really have a clue what Im doing, I've made some small stuff like minature wine glass things but I would like to start doing bowls. I have started one made from 2 planks of jarrah glued together. Me and my dad have been making it (or at least trying to ).
Its about 8" wide by about 3" thick. We turned the outside with some difficulty, lots of catching. We went out today and got a 6mm bowl gouge for $64 AUS (its a "hamlet") and a book called Learn to Turn by Barry Gross.
Anyway I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for making bowls?
Oh and also if anybody knows of any turning clubs in Western Australia could you please let me know
p.s will post a pic of my lathe soon because I'm not quite sure what it is. All it says on it is "carba tec" TF1996.
Thanks
