Very nice bowl, it inspired me to post a plywood plate that I had turned two years ago.
Do you have an issue with the little voids that appear during sanding between the plys and if so how do you deal with them?

-- Mel

Hi Mel, yes I do but I keep going until finish turning and before sanding I have a look if any void is there. If I was in a hurry I would fill it with dry sanding dust then cover it by super glue and after only few minuts I’d start sanding. (The dry sanding dust takes the s.glue deeper and harden it in no time) Otherwise I make my own patty of sanding dust and glue and fill any void and leave it few hours or next day.
I normally keep jars of sanding dust of all kind of timber I work with because that things can happen to all timber.
I take the opportunity to thank all L Js who commented on this project. See you soon with another one soon.

Fabulous Sam __from any angle , wouldn’t have even thought of mixing ply with that combo, like your comments on retaining samples of dust for thoes little ‘fix ups” great idea

Hi Sam, thanks for the info on this bowl. You make it look so easy, a beautiful job done again.

Thanks for sharing Sam.

Thanks Sher for commenting on this project. In fact, it was easy but new idea. I believe in that woodturning itself is not only an easy craft but even boring if you keep repeating turning the same things. New ideas and designs make it more excited and loved hobby, at least for me.

Great contrast Sam. Nice piece of turning.
