Hi Mark,

That's a very nice first bowl and a good post too.

All the problems you encountered with this bowl will be solved with; time on the lathe and asking questions here.

I found this interesting website while looking at all the links to my site.
I was amazed that this domain name was worth so much.

Thanks everyone for your input, I looked closer at the bowl; the wood had a lot of tiny worm holes. Looks like powder post beetle holes, being Mahogany it could be something else.

I did learn a...

This afternoon while roughing a bowl (16" x 16") made from South American Mahogany I had my first accident. I was wondering if it was ever going to happen since I've turned a great number of these...

I found this YouTube video and thought it was well made.

Enjoy!

I've been using beta versions for the past 7 months, I received the full professional version 10 days ago.

Hi Mark,

It's been awhile since I posted a comment..
Your HF's convinced me to tell you what I think.

I'm amazed that you have accomplished so much in less than 1 year.
I look back on my...

Hi Wally,

I think this is the first time I've commented about your work.
I like everything about this vase, the finish really makes the piece stand out.
I've been looking for some post turning...

I use a "card scraper" on all my turnings, with the lathe running.
I've found using them eliminates some of the courser sandpaper I would normally start with.

The only draw-back I've found using...

Hello Wayne,

Greetings from Niagara Falls.
Nice looking work you have posted.
You'll find a lot of inspiration and knowledge on this forum.

Nice bowl and stand Mike!
I know how difficult getting the joints to line up can be.
After 10-20 bowls it will get easier... lol

Keith, Wonderful turning!

I know the feeling of being to busy to turn.
I have 7 bowl blanks ready to go if I could only find the time to finish them.

Richard.. one word comes to mind "Superb"
I've seen only a few artists using this technique, you've succeeded in making a visually delightful work of art.
The ants are cool too!

Here is a tutorial for the "Stacked ring lamination" process.

Good one!
It looked kind of small.
No need to change the finish... lol

Hi Richard,

Nice bowl, what are its measurements?
I would suggest using "Salad bowl finish" it's non-toxic.

Hi Garth,

Greetings from Niagara Falls.
Wonderful work, it's always nice to see another segmented turner here.

Malcolm, Like the rest of your work this piece is very unique and well done.
I have followed your work for a few years now, having an artist like yourself with
the highest degree of turning...

Robert,

Very nice vase, what makes it more spectacular is the reason you had for making it.
Having the ability to create art and then giving it to a charitable cause is wonderful feeling.

Hi Dustin,

Here is a link to the software I use for my photo gallery:

JAlbum Photo Gallery software

It's very easy to build a gallery and free to use. Lots of templates.

Several months ago I was selling a truck on the CL.
I received many inquiries, the best one was from a woman in Chicago wanting to buy the truck for a friend of hers in need of a vehicle.
She told...

In the past few years I've made some huge bowls and they do sell.
I found making them shallower gives the client the ability to hang them on the wall.
The market here in Niagara Falls and Lewiston...
