Holiday turning pictures

[richburrow]

Hello all I hope you all had a good break and managed to squeeze in some workshop time.
I got sometime away from the rest of the world (thanks mum for looking after young Alex :lol: ) and managed to spin these out. I hope you like them, if any of you guys got some workshop time as well, add your pictures on.
Thanks for looking :lol:

Like the 3 bowels , but Hope you don't mine me saying they look a bit like me :? Chunky

All very nice!

I particularly like the Olive one - lovely timber and an unusual design which appeals to me very much.

I love them all Rich, and the mushroom/toadstools are my favourites. :wink:

Thank you for all your coments :lol: :lol:
I really enjoyed myself turning them and found it very relaxing!!!
Hoping to do more but work does get in the way of woodwork, shame. Finished a beech fruit bowl tonight, it looks ok but I did rush the finishing cuts
On the subject of the chunky look to the bowls, fair comment. I am getting to grips with my new bowl gouge at the moment, still learning, will get thinner as time goes on :wink:
Thanks again
Rich

Rich, on the gouge front on the smaller bowls you may find that a 3/8 or 1/2" is easier to cope with than some of those Graduate matching examples you have, don't know which you were using on the Record.

And be warned, you haven't done thin 'till you have achieved a Holy one. :lol:

Those of yours are a lot thinner than my early attempts.
