I had this piece of walnut that was discarded by a furniture company, they are looking for consistency when they make something like a chair or a tabletop so highly figured sections of wood usually end up in the waste.
The best part about woodturning in my option is that no two bowls are ever the same.
I start off by locating a rough center of the piece and mark a circle. To make things faster on the lathe I use the bandsaw to rough out a circle.
Next, I drill a center hole for the chuck screw. I actually drilled too deep here and you will see me fix that by applying some CA glue and walnut shavings.
After shaping the outside and cutting a tenon on the bottom I flip the bowl around and begin to shape the inside. This piece of wood actually had some voids on the inside that I had to fix by applying more CA glue and shavings too. Using an activator sets the CA glue almost instantly.
Once everything has been sanded up to 800 grid I then take a handful of shavings and polish the surface. I find this to be faster than going up to 600 or 800 grit and produces a great result in my opinion.
Now you will see me chiseling off the tenon, This was because my flat jaws were unfortunately too small to hold this bowl.
Originally I was kinda bummed out about that but I think the rounded bottom turned out really nice.
I hope you enjoyed this one, and please if you haven’t already, please like 👍 and subscribe 😁
