I agree. I know a couple of guys in Kentucky who never decide what their
turned object is gonna be until they are ready to apply the finish! Funny

me...............gotta have a plan................or at least a good idea!

Have a plan, and a chunk of wood to fit the bill would be handy.

No not a bowl gouge or 6" face plate - I am looking for something a

I have some ideas on this, but I want to see if any of you all
approach it the same way that I do....
