Very nice bowls. A couple of questions:
why do you use a router and
is there no way to keep the beautiful color seen in #10
I have found no satisfactory alternative for rounding the dovetail
recess in a warped bowl. Leaving it oval and irregular makes it
difficult to keep it on the chuck, and if slips during turning it is
almost impossible to get the same grip again without rounding it.
Some woods do not change shape as much with drying.
The color is fine, my photography is not.
