This is the final post for our Big Bowl project, it survived, didn't crack and is a stunner. Possible too large for a fruit bowl. Banana for scale.

Using bog oak to provide some contrast for a Christmas bauble... Yes we have to start this early. Do you like the snow effect at the end?

Feeling festive 😆 Get in touch on our Etsy page if you want to commission some baubles of your own.

Big bowl update....
Our next post will be the final piece coming off the lathe. We have now finished the exterior and turned the interior.... And what a lot of shavings that made! They're everywhere.

Ok Turners new and experienced.... (We have a mix at The Happy Turner) When the shavings completely cover your hand and chisel, who keeps turning? you are meant to be looking at the horizon of your work, not the chisel, but who prefers the security of seeing your blade.
