Had a go at turning on the bias. I laminated a 6 inch cube of plywood in the attempt to get a three wing bowl or a three corner bowl as they are called on the net. All was going well until the corners started breaking off.
Final settled for three curves by shaping the top with the dremel. Definitely not a project for plywood.
The base is a piece of Tasmanian Myrtle.

Look at that !! The beauty of plywood.
Bob, It seems to me, you are spending more money on glue than electrecity.

Not suited for sharp corners, but this is definately a very interesting piece!

Your right Sam, the glue is the dearest part but what is the price of enjoyment.
Branch, if you can get hold of some Marine ply or at least good quality ply it will make life easier.
I’m having fun alright Pete, will not die wondering what can be done with this stuff.
Thanks for the comments.
