Wood turning - Mahogany Bowl

I was given an 8 inch Mahogany bowl blank. It initially looked like two pieces of wood glued together, but it was just how it had been cut.
It came out quite well, with a nice shiny finish!

That grain and those colours it has are awesome. It did look laminated, at first, and was sort of hoping that the outside stayed that way. I am always wondering if I should sharpen or should I just run a steel over the tools... So hard to figure it out, but sharp tools are a must.
Keep on turning.
Cheers, Bluey 👍

Sharp tools are a must! Thanks for the comments. It turned out nice and shiny!

I don't think you always have to go back to the wheel every time but hone it on a stone or a diamond plate to keep a sharp edge.
