    They look very nice. Will a puck fit inside ? I use a huge bowl now because I hate the clank clink clonk of hitting the sides. There is this thing about being up 3 hours before the rest of the house :<0) They are beautiful pieces of work.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    The larger pucks will probably not fit. The i.d.s are roughly 2 & 3/4 inches, so they should fit a regular sized one. I do make them to be used.

    Lovely. do you have smooth interiors, or ridges inside to help with the lathering process? Most of the modern bowls and mugs i see are smooth - i miss the old ridged ones.
    Beautiful work.

    There is some roughness inside, but that is more due to a little bit of intractable tear-out than any design consideration. Normally, I sand the interior down to 320, the exterior to 600, and the bottom down to 220 or 320 before applying finish.
