Thanks for the kind words, Tom.

Bowl #1. I was having fun there on the inside once I figured out some
clue as to what I was doing with the bowl gouge. Evidently I didn't
sand the tearout enough, and the bottom is a mess since I don't have
the aforementioned chuck yet. But it looks like a bowl to me and I
still have all the appendages I started with so I'm going to call it a
victory.
