Job done. Got to finish off the second bowl. The smaller one appeared here before, but they look ok here together. There's not much difference between the grain patterns, but I think the larger bowl has much better. I think it was a good move to save some of this wood, rather than turn it all into shavings on the floor. Didn't bother with inserts in the bottom and after much thought, and I decided not to do any work on the screw holes in the smaller bowl.

Glad to hear you say you are satisfied that means a lot, the hardest critic is usually you're self and to please you're self is a great success well done as there is 3 beautiful bowls out of this piece of timber that could have easily been 1 bowl and a huge pile of shavings, well done Jim you have achieved the ultimate in having pleased yourself I say this with great respect of you're work.
Regards Rod.
