Ok here it is all done not bad considering I dont have a bowl gouge or a scraper. Had tons of fun. Also I decided not to carry the bowl up through the wings, I will wait till I get the right tools.

Looks a lot different than the first picture that for sure!
If you don't have a bowl gouge nor a scraper, what tool did you use?

<br />Nolan,
I do recommend that you get a bowl gouge or 2. Your best bet is either Glaser or Crown ProPM. Glaser is on the top price and quality wise but will serve you well and you'll get what you paid for. Crown is on the lower tier but offers the best value IMHO. With the right tool (maybe a bigger lathe too [])

I may have missed it, but what is the wood?
Thats what this was too if you look at the end with hole in the wing you will notice the rounded non-natural edge part well thats where I cut it in half.Originally posted by byounghusband
<br />WOW!! I have one piece of Red Mallee, but it is a two hump piece about 14" long and 6" wide shaped like a figure 8. Too big for my lathe (JET 1014)in one piece. I am torn between cutting in into two pieces, and using someone elses lathe to turn it.....

What kind of chuck system did you end up using to hold it while you turned the inside?
