Woodturning - Half a Log to a Bowl?

Woodturning a rather extreme bowl out of a half silver birch log is super fun, but you must take care due to its orientation and the possibility of a catch. Once it was mounted on my woodturning lathe, I spun the lathe slowly and removed small amounts of material at a time. The final bowl was sanded up to 320 grit, and I applied some mineral oil to enhance the grain and provide protection to the wood.

That would be perfect with the bark cup you made, to go in a log cabin. Excellent!!!!

Very nice. It’s always fun to see a square bowl turned.

[@louisapdjones]

That’s an impressive piece of work from an impressive piece of wood. Well done 🎉

Amazing square bowl (squowl?) - that was a heck of a lot of turning, it was spinning so fast at the outer edges they were invisible! Well done, such a unique bowl 🤩👍👀

Looks like it could be used as a small bench and sink, great job!

I only know three people who regularly use a glue block and the other two are Jim Sprague and myself. Nice job 🌞

David, the bowl is beautiful. Where do you get your signature coins. I’m having trouble getting mine from my normal source. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thank you Kelly W.
