Thanks for the remarks.
Arcos.....the thickness at the edge is, as you say, a little uneven. When I finished working at with my bowl-gouge, it was almost the same thickness along the edge, but it was starting to flex a bit under the pressure of the tool, so I finished it off with lots of sanding. to be honest, I lost my nerve and am not yet good enough at sharpening my tools anyway. I realise now that the amount of sanding was probably excessive and has thinned out the corners a bit too much.
Having said all that, I watched a video on Youtube of a guy making a very similar bowl, and his edge was just as uneven.
