They look like a fun little project smiife, nice piece of wood as well. Our wives can be our harshest critics.

How
Smiife, I'm pretty sure you did the inside first from a block of wood, and then remounted to do the OD. Did you cut it on a table saw to clean up the rim when done turning it? .......... Jerry (in Tucson)USA

Hi Tony , thanks mate , yeah , good job they are sometimes
Yeah , you should try them , thanks Gab
Hi Jerry , I wish I could remember the name of the guy who did the YT video
Will try and explain , but quite sure If you google "emerging bowls " ....you will find the video.....
2 pieces of nice wood the same width and half height and same length.....
Say , 100mm x 80mm x 40mm, then glue together with a paper joint....
So you have a 100mm x 80mm x 80mm , turn between centres and make a
half sphere on one end , split the 2 blocks and turn a bowl on the end you made the sphere ......does that make sense ?
If not let me know .....Cheers smiife

Nice emerging bowls and that Red Gum certainly has a lovely deep colour.
I watched a demo sometime late last year and kept promising to do one myself, then saw Mike's u tube one a month or so ago and again meant to do one but instead made my arty piece called Two Faced. why are there so many things I want to do but never enough time to do them in
