Thank you Bad Whiskey and Gary; here's a photo of the tools I use, the ones in front were used on this piece, the only power tools were the lathe and a small drill to start the cut w/ coping saw blades in the photo.
Boy I like it. I really love the top outside center piece and the feet. It makes this project over the top.
As of this time I am now teaching vets again. If you have any lumber scraps we can use them to glue up to make some bowl from a board which we have not done yet.. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.
