First lathe bowl

It was a big learning curve i know its not bushcraft but i want to post about all manner of crafts. I really enjoyed it it was very fun, very quick. Made out of an off cut of pine, it's too soft really and my newbie mistake was seeing other peoples bowls and, not wanting it to be too fat i went to thin. Its unbelievably light almost like polystyrene.
 Sanding is a dream as is lacquering etc. I really want to get a lathe of my own but the cost is very high for my very small bugit.
