          I couldn't help but notice your ladybird book 'The husband!' A client at work bought a copy for her husband, what a wonderful book! :loll:

                Very nice...

                Edit: To have made that bowl using a pole lathe is, in my opinion, a major achievement as I can fully understand the amount of work involved. Making the one in oak I posted was time consuming enough with a modern lathe. Turning one on your pole lathe...well, I take my hat off to you Zigs!

                  Not a clue on a price - suppose it will come down to.what you think it is worth, and what you are willing to take for it
