This is another practice bowl that I have created. I have no idea what type of wood this is just that I am guessing it to be some sort of eucalyptus. The bark was very thin about 2 - 3mm and greyish in colour. This piece was cracked and my original though was to mount in the lathe to turn the crack out.
I turned the bottom with a tenon and placed in the chuck. I started hollowing the bowl and stopped once the crack stopped. I turned it over and mounted it in cole jaws and got rid of the tenon. I guess we shall see how it stands up over time.
