If you read Jean Auel's book 'The Valley of Horses' there is a part where Ayla decides she needs to make bowls. She makes them with her hand axe and smooths them with river sand. I imagine they look like this.
nicely done. I'm a turner but I do make carved bowls too. I'd like to add one point of caution. those speedcutters especially the ones that are basically chainsaws on a wheel, have been responsible for some TERRIFIC injuries. They look so easy to use, but if you let it get away from you just slightly, they can really mangle whatever they touch. I've used a chainsaw for 50 years, and that is different. They are dangerous for sure, but you have bakes on moderns chainsaws, plus the cutter is further from you and more mass so it doesn't kick quite so quickly as a hand held grinder. In general the grinder works very well and can make you forget that at all times you keep BOTH hands on the tool.
Hi Paul, thank you. Yes I totally agree when using the cuter it need to be held tight with both hands. It can kick back very easily so you need to be concentrating fully when using it.
@joe blow vibration can really mess with your nerves haha. Some tools I’ve used have made my arms burn and tingle but never that fast, you prob just need to do it more often and get used to it.
I'm so glad you decided to use the natural shape for your caving. It is most attractive than a perfect circle. Great result and great video. Thank you for posting.
I recently got a wood carving disc for my angle grinder and a world of opportunities opened up before me as I saw what it could do. I live in the country so getting hold of a chunk of wood like this is relatively simple. Thankyou. you've inspired me to create.
That Ash wood cookie dried perfectly. I have a 14"x3" arbutus wood cookie I've been drying for a half year now that I had taken from a firewood stump, so one side was already seasoned and finely checked on that exposed end. I coated the cut end with wood glue and hopefully it dries out nicely and doesn't crack up on that side since I'm planning on using it for the seat of a stool.
@@EamonWalshDIY It's gonna be a bit of a challenge since I've never tried something like this plus I'm gonna do an epoxy pour on it to preserve the natural wood color of the arbutus.
Last time I used something along these lines, it yanked me across the log. It was one of those chainsaw pieces that connects to an angle grinder. Dumb be touched the log across the grain. Chain bit into the log and yanked me hard. ;)

I never got the chance to find out. There was an an accident with a football! I repaired it though. You can see the results on my Instagram page. If the wood is very very well seasoned before carving and then oiled straight after it would defiantly reduce the chances of it splitting.

Hi Micael, I only made two bowls with the blade but I reckon I could have made many more with it. FYI if you are using the blades be very carful, they can kick back! Also ware PPE.
@@mikecannon8179It was a graff speed cutter speedcuttergraff.com/ You need your wits about you and safety gear when using it but its good for shaping and carving.
Hi Justin, using smaller pieces and gluing would definitely reduce the chance of cracking or splitting. They are only 4 years old so I will have to get back to you in 10 years to see what they look like.
Nothing makes me more nervous than someone wearing gloves and long sleeves with an angle grinder. It’s an accident waiting to happen. However the bowl is very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful work..How much for such a bowl or are they custom orders?
Thank you@@cyrilusly They were a one off Iam sorry to say, so none available for sale.

Thanks Mark
Would you do the same thing again if you had no lathe and wanted to hollow through the whole thing?
How long should the wood dry before doing this?
I love it! I'm inspired to make one more. Where can I buy the wood?
Thank you very much. This was a piece I had left over from a tree that was felled a few tears earlier.
Thanks eamon I’m gonna try this one
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
*No joke: I'd rather have this bowl than any lathe-turned bowl I've seen made on UA-cam!*

How long did it take you to make this really pretty bowl?
Thank you Frédérique, It took around 4-5 hours if I remember correctly.
Looks great. How long did it take to grind out all that wood??
Thanks Glenn, I think it took about an hour or so.
Wow. This is fantastic. Is the oil you use at the end food grade? I'm assuming yes. I think I need it for my countertops!!

Thank you. yes they sure can be very dangerous.

Does the pith eventually crack bad? Does the oil stop it from cracking? I've done smaller pieces and oil seems to prevent cracking.

Hi David. The wood is Ash and it had been drying for a few years before use.
Nicely done! May i ask- what was the thickness of stump you used? Looks about 12-14 inches? Thx
