bowl

Bowl since repair job on my lathe, turned 9 pens for friends then decided to finish the bowl that killed the lathe 2 weeks ago. Ash 6" x 2"

One I thought I would share with you all. Monkey puzzle tree limb section bowl.

The nearest woodturning club to me opened its doors last night with a demo from Chris Parker (The Bald Woodturner). Sheffield Woodturners Home I was so much out of my depth, the bloke turns a bowl faster than I can get my job onto the lathe. He started off by turning a bowl and he then...

I was asked to make a bowl as a retirement present for the outgoing Chairman of Blind Veterans UK. & our own Neil Lawton kindly donated an elm burr. The bowl is 12”” diameter x 4” deep & is finished with sanding sealer & microcrystalline wax. It was a challenge as I hadn’t turned a bowl I over 2...

Again not too happy with this. This is the largest bowl I have done to date (4 bowls and a dish) and my 3rd sole bowl. I turned this over the weekend and really messed up on the finish (again) I do think I am getting a little bit better and am certainly more confident. CC is more than welcome...

5 in x 2 in. Quarter sawn English oak, a very hard & dense blank to turn. After trying all my tools (rather aggressive in such a small piece) I used my Sorby micro modular toolset on it and I must say that they worked a treat - the tiny hollowing tool removes a fair amount of wood without...

Stupid mistake made today. :vangry: I was cutting the nub off of a bowl today, well not really a bowl it was about 3" diameter and 1/2" deep made from sepia (I think) anyway I cut into the bowl so it now has a hole in the middle of it about 1/2 inch wide. It honestly took me hours to sand the...

I have attempted to do a bowl over these last few days, it is the first thing I have turned with zero supervision. I think I have messed up the finish as to me it looks too dark, also when taking the nipple off I did not have enough padding on the inside as have a line near the top where the...

Well if nothing else the title alone would probably get this thread a few more views :face: Of course I am talking about my wood turning virginity. I wanted to show these photo's on here before anywhere else mainly due to the wonderful help and advice you have shown me since I joined up, it...

Well, Gary (Garno) made it up to York today and can no longer say he's not turned anything! A Yew bowl, a Zeta in Olive and an Omega fountain pen in Turkey Oak.

Well, I joined a pen-turning forum but have only turned one thoroughly unremarkable pen so far so thought I'd post a bowl, to say "hi" to fellow members. Attempted to make it double-sided Laburnum, W150mm x H50mm, finished with cellulose sanding sealer and microcrystalline wax, with Chestnut...

The first turning of the year/ I just had to go and turn something I have kept it simple as the wife kept asking for a bowl for the small coffee table to put fruit and sweets in for Christmas (well at least it will be ready for next Christmas:funny:). Measures 10 1/2" X 2"

Yep to much information overload. I am so confused. So would some one please explain the difference between a spindle and bowl gouge. If I'm right it's the shape of the chisel V shape is spindle gouge and a U shape is a bowl gouge or is it just the grind? But a Irish grind on a small to...

So as I said yesterday " I'm going to turn my first bowl) well I've turned it in end grain slab of wood I was given about 8 years ago a big lump of sable or what ever it is but it was a red wood. in the first two images I turned the bowl and stopped because of catches scared my self to death, I...

I'm thinking of turning my first bowl tomorrow on a blank that is cut as a square lump of wood so it will be end grain bowl. Maybe not the ideal wood to start my adventure in bowl turning but I have 6 or 7 lumps of this wood so I have a lot to practice pieces to run through. I would like to...

I needed some me time so a simple bowl. Decorated in a similar style to barge painted flowers. 8 1/2" X 1 1/2" London plain. Flowers are done with Inktense pencils and finished with Acrylic sander sealer and woodwax22

Had another day to myself yesterday (:banana:) so in the workshop before it becomes too cold. Made this and I quite like it. This time I used landscape mode. Lets see what happens :praying: Yeah!!! Thanks Pierre...... Cheers Frederick

Hi, after much screaming and swearing and a few blanks ending up in the bin these are the first 4 pens I have completed along with my first bowl made from an Ash blank from Axminster. I think they all look ok -from a distance( in a dark room with the lights off!) but reasonably happy with...

Well technically it is a bowl.. and two pens for my local bowls club

A very quick simple bowl that I promised someone who gave me some wood quite a while ago. Nothing fancy or even coloured
