The title pretty much sums this video up. I've been wanting to create some larger stepped bowls from a while now and well, it's a bit harder than I thought. SO, expect lots of failure, bowl crushing and the unboxing of what might be the most beautiful tungsten trimming tool I've ever seen, made and very kindly given to me by Devon Malazdrewicz, here's his Instagram: [ Ссылка ]
(EDIT: Okay! It looks like he might be selling a batch of tools, so if you are interested do check out his Instagram and perhaps send him a message!)

Finally, the rough bowl is finished using my special new trimmer and refined to a point that's actually rather decent considering the strange undulation the form had. It's incredible what you can get away with by working carefully.
Thanks so much for watching!
