George,

I'll add to the acclamation on these, they are very well done.

At first I thought the outer cut of the beads were a bit pronounced but then I could see that they actually framed the inner bowl area very cleverly, a very neat trick I’ve not seen before.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!

with more practice you'll be able to use a spindle gouge.
