I just turn bowls, although some of them get a bit wayward at times like the one I have as my avatar on the left. That's two bowls together with a small lidded one held by a larger (21") inverted bowl. And, closed forms are just two bowls joined rim to rim...

While platters are really just very flat bowls...:)

And, some bowls go their own way and get a bit unruly...

But, mostly I just try to just turn the simplest bowl I can from any given piece of wood that I have, like this one...
