Square-Edge Bowl
That sounds like a viable alternative, although I was doing okay avoiding
the corners until my hand slipped.

I tried my first square-edge bowl today. The blank was a 5" x5" x 2"
piece
of Honduras Mahogany. All went well as I mounted the blank on the
woodworm
screw of my Super Nova chuck and proceeded to turn the back side of the
bowl. I was sanding with a small piece of sandpaper, when my hand
slipped
and a couple of the wings cut two small, but deep gashes in my second
finger. Ouch!
A method that has been mentioned here is to hot-glue on some waste wood
around the square, so you can turn and sand full-round, then pop off the
waste wood and clean up the finished edges when you're done with the
faces.
