 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Very well! In fact, it turned so good I almost took the rough bowl to thin. After the initial rough in I let it set and there is some warping that happens normally. When I finish turned it to true it up I had to take the walls thinner than I would have liked. The holly handled the whole process like a champ and has a very pleasant texture when finished. I'm looking forward to the other half I have and would welcome a trade for more if you don't have a use for it.

Man those are NICE!  :OK
Do you stabilize the wood before turning or is it just well seasoned ?

I've worked a few stabilized blanks, but mostly fresh or seasoned wood.

You put those out on the trade blanket and you are gonna have some mighty quick bowl movements!    ;D
