Hey all, after a shameful amount of time as a member here - my first post showing something I've made!
It is a series of 3 bowls around the 12x5" mark, turned green to (hopefully) finished thickness from spalted silver birch.

If anyone has any constructive criticism, especially if you are interested in turning green bowls i would sincerely welcome any tips - does anyone think they're too thick? i know the first one was as it was about 1/2", but the second and third were closer to 1/4" so hopefully wont see any cracks!

Anyone got any good resources for green bowl turning?

Looking good from here.
Regarding resources - Mike O'Donnell's 'Turning Green Wood' is a really clear, illustrated guide - Very easy to follow, (though not necessarily replicate!!)
