    Even if this hadn’t turned out to look so fantastic it would still have been a masterclass in abstract planning. A work of art.

      If he used a scroll saw with the table tilted at an angle to part the circular pieces, he might have been able to get a few more levels and therefore a deeper bowl.

      Exactly. I love the wonderfully creative projects made with lathes, but always disliked how terribly wasteful the process is. Especially with wood, where the chips can't be recycled.

It was fine until I Started putting on the oil finish, and the Padauk bled so bad into the Poplar that it liked like raw salmon. Learning experience. I bought some African Blackwood and tested it first for the bleed…..ended up pairing it with Purpleheart - turned out fantastic!

I am left with one 13” disk that I do make angled cuts into with a 1/16” parting tool for a different type of stack-up bowl. I fitted a 2 x 2 block onto my tool rest and cut various angles into it to steady my parting tool for 90, 45, 52 and 60 degree cuts.

    Very clever way to cust those angles, but they have an attachment called “Ringmaster” that does this too. I’ve got one and it works great but expensive little gizmo. Awesome board to bowl!
