That should work perfect for you, and the grain orientation should line up as well. Can't wait to see what you do with it! Don't hesitate to ping me back anytime with other questions.

Here's a pretty good video for you Rodney about what I was saying in our PM. His videos are full of self promotion for hus other videos and content, but generally are very good and thorough. Hope this is what you were referring to!

Rodney - nice looking piece of wood.

Don't make the mistake I once did - I cut the length to match the width, not realising it would've been part of the finished item. Natural edge bowls typically aren't round, they are longer than they are wide. (You can pretty much see it in this piece.)
