    Default Camphor bowl

    This is my first time playing with Camphor and I enjoyed. I found it very easy to turn but wasted heaps trying to get a shape I was happy with. It certainly is a good thing to turn when you have a cold. I put to good use all the advise I got with my Eucalypt bowl to make the walls thinner and depth better, and did it with some confidence. I love the colours that appear when you cut into it. The bowl is 70mm tall by 190mm wide.
