My local turning club has an annual.....

... turning project with the Kentucky Arboretum, we source wood there and turn items for a silent auction in June. This take is split 50/50 and provides a reason to get the turning members involved on a project with a deadline! I recently turned this 17"Wx5"H Walnut bowl with somewhat wider edges to emphasize the rustic bark for potential buyers that aren't turners that expect thinner edges.

nice, Jamie...

I agree completely about the edge.

The end result is the goal, and IMO, that's to SHOW the bark, not to make it as thin as you can.

Very well done. ...GG

That is the level of quality I aspire to-maybe someday. Truly outstanding.
