First off -- I'm new to wood working of most any kind, so please be gentle.
I've been messing about with the making of wooden bowls. I'm doing the work without a lathe and won't be aquiring one. This is hobby not a business and a limited number will be made. The object is as much the doing of the project ast it is getting it done quickly. I've been using a Dremel tool and assorted rasps, files grinders and sandpapers so far. Concave and convex surfaces on the inner parts of the bowls are a challenge, especialy on the harder woods and I've been looking at various scrapers as a solution for getting the surfaces smooth and free of gouges or uneven rolls in the surface. I've been looking at the following two items from Lee Valley Tools. I don't wish to spend a lot of money as this will not be a high use item.
Burnisher/Scraper Set 05K20.31
Mini Spoon Scraper 50K01.01
Could some of you more knowledgeable people comment on which of the two might be the more versatile item or suggest alternative solutions?
