Again not too happy with this.

This is the largest bowl I have done to date (4 bowls and a dish) and my 3rd sole bowl.
I turned this over the weekend and really messed up on the finish (again)

I do think I am getting a little bit better and am certainly more confident.
CC is more than welcome.

Don’t knock yourself, looks great.

Just look on how far you have come from not turning a few weeks ago to making bowls like this.

Keep it up and pat yourself on the back.

Like many when they started turning they make simple mistakes which they can see. The bowl you have turned is nothing to complain about as it's only your 5th one. The more turning you do the more you will improve. Keep up the good work
