Hi All,this is a sycamore bowl i turned just to test out a new tool I ground (similar to a scraper-see thread : http://www.penturners.co.uk/tools-equipment-accessories/1408-homemade-tool-bushings.html#post14044)
Finished with sanding sealer and friction polish

That was my first thought, it looks like china !

Fabulous finish, you really have got the knack of friction polish that's for sure.
