    The work looks pretty basic, what will be the determining factors is: What sort of finish are you looking for. And where does it need to be shipped from/to. And last but not least, how much would you pay for that bowl - labour only?

    Thanks for your reply Spin Doctor

    Because of logistics I'll probably look at engaging someone from Nth Qld

    I should have mentioned this previously

    Townsville probably the southern limit for me at this stage

    I can't possibly help, because of my location, but the one thing that needs mentioning is, How many are you expecting per month or year? Price should be settled between turner and retailer, or in this case, Log Dog. I see about 2 hours time in just turning and sanding before the finish. Another 20 minutes spraying the finish on if doing 3 coats. Of course there is time while waiting for the finish to dry between coats. ..................... Jerry (in Tucson)USA
