This is the 2nd bowl that I turned. It was turned from green spalted maple and almost blew apart in the process. I was able to save it with the use of epoxy and maple sawdust mixed in to help blend the epoxy. I then used a clear finish and lots of handrubbing. The bowl measures 4” X 12”.

Very nice bowl. I like that you left the rough edges: adds character.

How do you chuck the bowl to finish the bottom?

I actually did this at the college when I was taking a bowl turning class. I glued on a turning block with a paper joint. When the bowl was done I took a chisel and peeled off the block, then used an overhead router to clean up the bottom then finished it off the lathe. Thanks for the remarks
