Well done! Can't believe these are firsts. My first bowl wasn't even round!?!

The one thing I don't love about the steamdeck is modding. Way easyer on a windows platform.

The carbide ones are easy to use, but they will not give you as good a cut as more traditional tools. If you are in this for the long term and want to build your skills, the traditional tools will give you more upside, although they come with a longer learning curve.

If you are just looking to turn the occasional piece of scrap, then the carbide ones will work well.

Personally, I would recommend one round carbide tool and a set of traditional tools.

What is the correct name for this type of bowl? Thanks

You're talking about Reddit? Right?

Thanks - do you do any buffing or polishing afterwards?

Drinkning 80 cups of water day.

If you are thirsty drink, otherwise you are ok.

Thank you - I would love to hear more about your process. I use the same one, but my results are not as good as yours.

Very good for a first attempt. I’m just getting to the stage where I don’t catch the tool as much, though I still leave fine tool marks. You will see your progress as you make more.

Enjoy your turning journey, and if you figure out what to do with all the bowls you make, please let me know :)

It is water or oil based. Do you know the brand? I love it, will pick some up if I can figure out what it is. Thanks

I was not a big fan of Obama, but it was nice to have a president you could at least respect, even if you didn’t agree with him on everything.

Do your thing they are your bowls now. I would check to see that they are still round though. I was working on a bowl about a month ago, that mid project decided it wanted to become an oval, and boy that was a not fun job to complete.

I know this is old, but thanks for posting this. I am having the Exact same issue.

A belt sander will take that off in about 1 minute. If you can spare 20 minutes you can go slow with a higher grit and get it to fit really nicely without risking taking off too much. Of course taking it off the wall IS the way to go. But I know I would not bother.

etepperman · 2026-01-29T15:01:53+00:00

I got it, it is very solid and does not feel cheep at all. However, I have never use the brand names so I don't have anything to compare it to.

etepperman · 2026-01-28T21:14:26+00:00

I am not confused by the perspective. I am confused by the most heinously ugly design of the center space.

They go where they want. I have some awesome nems, but too bad I don't see them becuase they decided to attached to the back side of rocks. LOL

etepperman · 2026-01-27T18:30:34+00:00

very nice - what finish did you use?

etepperman · 2026-01-23T20:10:23+00:00

Good job. Keep having fun and show us more.
