Woodturning - Dragon Bowl from End Grain Black Walnut

Huge American black walnut log turned into an end grain dragon bowl. The final piece reminded my wife to a dragon egg and skin of the dragon therefore the name of this project. Used my one-way easy coring system to produce two bowls out of this log. Due to end grain turning that made it a little harder so tried to be passioned to allowed the cutter to do its job. To add extra features, I added some wave effect to both to the top and bottom. Finished with boiled linseed oil hope you enjoy this woodturning project 😊

is there any way you can make a video on how to make or get that jig of yours

Love that cutting tool, leaves you with less mess and another piece for next project!...lovely bowl...and great size and shape!

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thanks you 😀 Yes it is a great investment. So nice to see you can make more out of the wood

[@OkayImLisa]

I agree with you.....and I'm wondering about all the tools I've never imagined but might be on someone's wish list. Conclusion: it will be fun to see what's next.

[@curtiswhitfield9045]

where can i get that tool ?

[@chaoticconjuring]

The wood grain on that piece is very beautiful. I’m glad you left it alone and let it shine for itself. Very well done!

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 😀

[@BetweenDreams999]

The OCD'er in me was very happy you cut out the bottom too!! LOL Beautiful wood that black walnut is!! Awesome bowl David!!

[@prsearls]

That is a remarkable bowl. It shows imagination and skill (and lots of patience) . The wood is very pretty and is sure to get lots of attention.

[@marclytle644]

Wow, that is beautiful. Always loved seeing wood furniture. Take a nice stain that brings out the grain of the wood, just love that natural look. It saddens me to see an old piece of furniture covered in paint. That just hides the beauty. Amazing bowl you made.

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you 😀

[@berriee7848]

the way the inside didn't go to waste omg i love this idea alot much much respect !!!

[@lucydurham1403]

I love that you scooped out the core! It always makes me a little sad when that gets gouged out, seems like such a waste. The bowl looks great, David!

[@DavidsWoodturning]

Thank you so much 😊 Agree, hate wasting good materials I am glad such coring system is available

[@OOTurok]

Especially when turning exotic wood. Always best to core them out... even cheap wood.

[@cjtheisen5124]

@@DavidsWoodturning Couldn't you make another smaller item from the core?

A first rate piece David, beautifully done! But I have to say the star of the show is the wood itself. Never seen grain or colour like that before. Completely off the chart in my opinion. Superb!
