Full Version: Christmas bowl

I’ve started working on more woodworking Christmas projects. I just finished this bowl. It’s made from hard maple cutoffs and a piece of bloodwood. It is 8” in diameter and 1 3/4” tall and has three coats of Formby's high gloss tung oil. I still have two more in the works.
Thanks for looking...

Fixed, I hope. Google photos seems to always give me grief.
I put it on Flickr and it seems to show up ok for me.

that's very nice. I have a design in my head for something similar. I was thinking of cutting a block in half in a wavy line and seeing if I could do a glueup with a bent piece to follow the curve. it may be that I cut it, then I soak the contrasting piece to soften it, then I clamp everything until the contrast dries in the shape I need, then I glue it up.
Well that looks pretty nice.  I did a small plate for my wife kind of like that.  On the left side I made two cuts about 3/4" apart and glued it together.  When it was dry I did it again but horizontal and on the upper part about 2" from the top and in two lines 3/4" apart again.  It looked really neat and if I get time to find it I will take a picture.
Really nice bowl! I'd be proud of that.
