The feature ring (i.e., the one w/the scallops) is a 'sandwich' of light wood between dark. In this case birch and walnut. To get uniform scallops it's important that they're not offset - I checked that with a pencil. You can see the mark. Rather than a pencil line drawn where I did, envision a tool cut from the outer joint of the light/dark wood intersection. It would just touch the light wood, and cut away a bunch of the dark. If you cut just a bit towards the center you expose more light wood near the joints. If you went straight in, you would end up with light and dark vertical bands, but because the bowl is cut at an angle the scallop forms. On the outside you end up cutting off the walnut where the joints are, leaving light wood at the joints and dark in the middle. On the inside it's the opposite, hence dark scallops on the outside and light ones on the inside of the bowl. Hope that makes sense. Also hope this posts gets distributed by the news server. Several haven't. I'm trying out a new newsreader (Pan) too, so hopefully the photo is actually attached. S'later... ....Kevin |

When I built up the rings, I did a top half which contained the scallop. Here's a shot of the top half, not mounted on the lathe, and another shot of the whole bowl on the lathe but not ye turned. The shot I posted yesterday was of the the top half on the lathe. I was making sure it ran true when mounted before gluing on the bottom half... ....Kevin -- Kevin Miller - http://www.alaska.net/~atftb Juneau, Alaska In a recent survey, 7 out of 10 hard drives preferred Linux Registered Linux User No: 307357, http://linuxcounter.net |

Very nice, and quite a complex set of pieces to make the bowl.
What glue is good for this application? I have a lathe and have done mostly spindles. I never made a bowl. john "Kevin Miller" wrote in message ...

OE does not have any problem with attachments and I always see them, so it seems it has to be on Kevin's end. The binaries newsgroup in which I read these things likewise has no problem propogating binary posts. I had seen previous pictures he posted but this post says he was trying again since a previous attempt failed. Well - his text came through here, but not his pictures. Don't know what is going on, but with all of the problems he's having it just seems easier to use a web site for images. Did you see pics in the post I replied to? -- -Mike- |
