1st winged bowl

Winged Bowl

That is a very nice bowl. The Aussie burls are really gorgeous!

Since you asked, I like it except the inverted bottom. I just have never like the expansion chuck opening. It maybe that as a woodturner you look at it as how it was done, and to me that part looks unfinshed. I do like the shape and the white edge dividing the bowl from the rim.

Thanks. Next one I try I'll tenon and reverse chuck to clean it up. Want to thank everyone for the kind words and suggestions.
