bowels are difficult to buy, especially when they are made of lyme???:lol:

 

lime wood is good for a bowl as it's nice and stable and at 19" is an underrated timber for such purposes.

 

AHPP, it depends what wood you make it from and if you use quartersawn wood or not. there will always be some warpage if it is to be used as a plate as there will be moisture introduced when food is on it and when it is washed up.

 

personally i would use a nice stable timber with a closed grain like something from the maple family.
