Turned a Yew Bowl

[steveisfound]

Hi all...

First turning of 2017... after the run up to Christmas - where a lot of my family and friends wanted pens made for presents (very chuffed that people like my pens after only turning for a few months!) - I thought I would attempt to turn a couple of bowls.

Here is the first one - a small bowl in Yew.

Thanks Keith!

I finished the bowl with Carnauba wax, after sanding to 240 and then using Yorkshire Grit.
