The biggest key is to turn at the fastest safe speed. This is probably not a good first project as your “fastest safe speed” is probably not sufficient. After you get a little more experience, you find that you can turn at much higher speeds, which is necessary when doing projects which require “turning air”. I sat in on a Jimmy Clewes demo where it sounded like we were in a giant wind tunnel.

Holy smokes, timing is everything! I just glued up a couple pieces of cherry to make a bowl of a very similar design! While I was waiting for the glue to dry, I thought I would check out my favorite hangout, and I saw your bowl Joe! I thought I had thought of a really unique design (dang, beat out by a couple of hours!!!) Great design and execution! I will post mine in a day or two. I think you’ll appreciate the irony! Thanks, and happy new year, Craven

Craven – I got my original idea from a Bill Grumbine video. I had previously created a square bowl using a different technique which was more awkward, but better suited to my skills at the time. I’ll post a new project so you can see my original attempt at a square bowl.
