What i do is mount the base with a mortise and then using cole jaws glue each ring on one at a time. After i glue on a ring i rough turn the inside round if it’s going to be a vase; if a bowl where i can still get to the inside of the lowest ring than i will turn the inside after the outside is complete. Seems easier than this method to me. Thanks. I also use your sled. Works great.
Oh fun! I’ve never turned a pen but it looks like a ton of fun! Maybe I’ll get to do it this year. Bowls and vases are SO fun, hopefully I can inspire you to get into it this year.

Oh yeah! I like that idea as well. I guess it’s whatever works for you right? Glad you like the sled.
Nice bowl this week. Thanks!
I just use a glue block for the bottom of my segmented bowls.
Yeah! Thats what I use to do. Glue the back to a sacrificial block and turn off of that. This should make things a lot easier!
@@madiradesign but for a small bowl that can definitely work. I probably would have dropped into routine instead of flipping the bowl. Thanks again!
Thanks for this. I've not done much turning larger than pens/stoppers, and want to get into bowls/vases, so these tips are very helpful!

@@madiradesign i just got your wedgie sled 2 days ago, so I think the inspiration has already started! :D
@@JoeRadose oh awesome! Can’t wait to see what you make with it!
Just recently found you, loving the channel so far! Its nice to find others turners :)
Awesome! So glad to have you, hopefully I can keep you entertained. 🤘🏽
a saw eliminates the concern about the corners--quick pass on a band saw and its much safer
Yes. I totally agree.
