Wow, what finesse! I've only done about 6 or so troughs, Scandinavian style, so far. But as I have no experience of carpentry or the geometric side of woodwork this gave me some neat tricks when the day comes that I would aim to make a symmetric bowl. This is the best and most enjoyable resource so far in green woodwork that I've come across. Cheers

I know my reply is very late, but thank you, Kim! I hope your bowl carving is going well.
I don't see myself carving any bowls anytime soon, but this series is really enjoyable to watch. The layout work using compasses alone is worth the price of admission.
