Re London Plane (AKA 'Lacewood'), I turned a square edged bowl from a London Plane blank 15cm square x 7,5cm high. ('6" x 3" in 'old money'). You need to keep your fingers well out of the way of the corners as you only see the corners as a 'ghost'. I made another one in Rosewood. Both were presents for my two daughters in law. Then I made another in cherry for my wife. Some pics attached.
I thought they'd make a change from 'round & brown'.
Hope that's of interest. (For the avoidance of doubt, I do turn other things!).
