Your process is very similar to mine with only a couple deviations. First, when turning the outside, I do it left handed with a large, lidded garbage can next to the lathe. Doing it this shoots a good bit of the shavings into the can and not on the floor. The second deviation is in hollowing where I drill a depth hole in the center before starting to hollow.
Looked like there was part of the pith remaining in blank. Will that be a problem for you later?

[@William_Kenny]

Cheers for watching Stewart, good idea using the garbage can, well spotted on the little bit of pit left in, that bowl has dried very well with no I'll effects,
Kind regards From Will 😊👍

You make it look so easy. I’ve put my one and only cored bowl in a wheely bin full of shavings to dry 🌞

[@William_Kenny]

Thanks very much Ray, I just pop them up on the rack and leave to dry it seems to work well for me, I lose an odd one to cracking but that makes a good candidate for milliput or some other form of filling 👍

Sweet chestnut is one of my favourite woods for colour and grain. Simple but charming. I've not had any green chestnut though. I have been doing some part turning of cherry, ash and silver birch though. I was mixing the pva glue with water. Have you found just pva glue better?

[@William_Kenny]

Thanks for watching Rachel, I mix a tiny bit of water in just to help it spread around a bit, I always put a few coats on it seems to work for me, with the exception of a few causality 😁

[@racheldray1057]

@@William_Kenny I'll try doing that then. I shall rummage in the boxes of shavings and smother them in a stronger coat or two.

Very nice.
