Anyone Want a Free Maine Woodturners Tee Shirt?

'Tis all over but for the crying in your curlies, Mr Boheme. 😀

I figured the election would be rigged ... the poor mechanical engineer got cheated out of a free t-shirt. The angst has caused me to dig out my skew and attempt to actually use it to turn some wood. I didn't have too much trouble with the outside, but the inside of that bowl is giving me fits.
 
Really expected my suggestion ("Real Men/Women Turn Wood") to be a winner. I too am deeply hurt, and even tried to turn a hollow form despite not having a hollow-former. Did not try your hook tool, Bill, cause it is dry, cross grain pecan.
