I am in the process of turning a hollow form with a bark inclusion that I would like to highlight. This piece has already been rough turned and is dry. Dealing with a bark inclusion will be a first for me and I have a couple of questions that I'd like to get input on prior to going further. I have the outside turned and sanded and am about to begin refining the hollowing. Here are my questions:
- How thin should I turn this? It would seem to me that if turned too thin, the inclusion will be diminished, but I just don't know. I was thinking something like 1/4" or 3/16".
- Would it be best to use CA on the bark prior to final hollowing or is that reserved for natural edge bowls?
Any input appreciated.
