Get a grip on that bowl

Cool bowl.

Thanks, Hairy!
wow, gotta say, I’d never heard of this technique but you can bet I’ll be trying this in the future. I still think about your really cool ice cream scoops, and how by mounting your stock on a different axis you can achieve some great sculptural effects. I’ve got a request for some hog-scraper candlestick holders, and I’ve been putting it off because I did not feel too sure about turning separate finger-ring holders…with this technique I’m pretty sure I can turn the candlestick holders AND finger-holds from one integral piece of stock. I’ve got to wait for a chance to clear the decks, about 3 more pressing obligations, then it’s back to the lathe, front and center. Thanks for the inspiration, Hairy!

Hi Hairy, thanks for showing how it is done, so easy really but still awesome.

-- When you know better you do better.

@ poopiekat. I’ve thought about candlestick holders like that, just haven’t tried yet. It should work.

@Cher. If it wasn’t easy, I couldn’t do it. Have fun with it.

That is one clever technique.
