This is a piece I posted on the previous Forum.The reason it was left thick it was what the customer wanted.I am also trying to find my way around "Picasa" where my photos are now kept.Regards John

Hi John

I think it is a little thick but if thats how the customer wanted it, then the customer is right, well there think so.

Umm...customers aren't always right are they. There's almost another bowl waiting to be released out of this one. Lovely burr, and unusual, great finish, but the customer was wrong sadly.

Hi Phil,Andy, Thanks for your comments I would not normally leave it this thick but the customer was my Daughter in Law she bought the burr and said this is what she wanted.Regards John

I wouldn't have thought you would have, John. But now you've named the "customer"...it is of course spot one!
