Currently all of my bowls are hancarved using an adze, an axe, a trogrunner and a drawknife. In the future I hope to be able to turn bowls using a modified pole lathe.

The example in the photographs below is a Dough Bowl. As with all of my woodwork the finished item is oiled. My own preference is for walnut oil as it drys to leave a slight "shell" on the wood.

I prefer to leave my bowls un-sanded with the "tool marks" still visible. These are rustic items after all!
