I started the backside of this a couple months back. Put it aside until I attended my first woodturning chapter meeting where I could show it to someone and get ideas of what I'm doing. Lol So one of the guys showed me how to hold my gouge and hollow. Well I started back on this about a week ago and found out real fast that a roughing gouge was not a bowl gouge. Off to the internet and got me a set of bowl gouges in Thursday. Started hollowing yesterday after some mediocre sharpening of the tools and finally finished. I wanted to hollow the insides a little deeper but I just couldn't get my bowl gouge to do what I wanted it to do. I've learned a few things on this though and I like the candy dish that will just sit next to my computer. Lol I finished this with about 18 coats of Wood Turners Finish. Food safe, just has to cure about a week before use.
