Mac,

No. What I was referring to is the frequent interference of the banjo as you
begin to get near max diameter on bowls. The 6" side reaches over the ways
with the banjo out of the way much better.

As far as round goes, just seemed smoother to use with gouges.

Yeah, I knew that, Tom...
I was just being a smart ass...

I have an old "French curve" rest that I use on larger bowls..
