In this video Harry and I will turn an emerging bowl from a slab of spalted sweet gum. I saw a demonstration by Stuart Batty where he turned a similar piece and figured I should give it a try. The finish used was Mahoney’s Walnut Oil. This is my entry for this months YTCCC2021 challenge of “Balance”.
I’ll begin by marking out some rough dimensions on where I want the bowl to be located. I then cut off a lot of this bulk on the bandsaw so the piece can be more balanced before mounting between centers on the lathe. I begin with the bottom of the piece facing the headstock and begin shaping what will be the top of the winged bowl. In the end I use a jamb chuck to secure the piece so that I can turn a round bottom on the piece.
Feel like buying a beaver some wood?
