Cover the endgrain with some PVA glue and we are good to go.

Nice little bit of work, Kyle should get some nice bowls out of these 8 blanks.

Cheers!
 
It was a great time. Stu you are a great teacher. Effortlessly pretending I know more about wood turning than I know. Now, I got to go and make his confidence in me come true. Thanks Stu. I am really jacked and looking forward to the challenge.
