Turning a piece of 8/4 kiln dried lumber yard purchased walnut that I cut into a circle about 7" in diameter. I turned the outside on a face plate then mounted the recess in a chuck. It was only little off as far as runout was concerned after I mounted it in the chuck. I then turned the outside again and got it to where there was only about .001" runout (used my tool rest against the outside of the side of the bowl similar to photos). I assume this is normal.
Now the issue. I turned the inside of the bowl, and now there is about .050" runout (almost 1/16") on the outside side of the bowl (again, used my tool rest against the outside side of the bowl similar to photos).
You can see in the rim of the bowl (looking to the inside) that the rim at the edges that run with the grain significantly thicker than the edges that run with the face grain. Any help would be appreciated.
By the way, I still need to sand.
