After that fiasco of cracking my myrtle wood bowl I turned out my maple bowl and it came out quite nice.  I left the walls just a bit thicker seemed to hold up quite nicely.  In the short run of things this ones almost done.

    Just did a cherry bowl. Tried every tool in my arsenal on one place- carbide (new cutter) and hss (freshly sharpened) and sandpaper. Looked pretty good until the oil went on.

    That's one type of wood I've yet gotten to turn and I've been trying to get a chunk of that for a while.

    Just finished off this project I like the way it looks.  The walls arent too thick.  The tung oil does make a much nicer finish than the mineral oil does.
