Blimey, Woody! If I do one bowl a day it's a miracle! You should have worked for Harry Lebus back in the old days!!!

Only 1/2 a day Richard I didn't start till 12 pm Its quite easy once you get a system going all the outsides first then all the insides also being beech they didn't need much sanding in fact some didn't need any sanding at all thats why I was able to do so many in such a short time
