Spurred by the well-intentioned suggestions of some here I got a new
difital camera and took new photos of my humble efforts. I'd
appreciate any comments/observations/etc. So far I have used oak,
utili, purpleheart, chestnut, pine, walnut, yew and sycamore to make
them. And I have a nice piece of wenge in the corner but I'm just
waiting for inspiration!

Thank you. So far I've only used crushed or plain velvet to line with.
Seems to work well. And yes, the girls do like them!

For some reason I've never had the urge to try turning. It just
doesn't appeal to me and I'm sure that my "total woodworking
experience" suffers thereby.
A bowl is just a box with no corners!
