Nice work. Are those pierces? If so, how thick is your wood?
 
Very nice piece Richard. I really like the way the piercing is so controlled and has such an intricate pattern. My focus is drawn to the piercing, but there is also a very nice bowl there, almost like two bowls in the same space. What tool do you use for piercing?
 
Hi Marc thanks for commenting! I use a dremel type tool but I don't like the way it works much I am looking at a dental drill but have to find the cash for it and a compressor so its taking a while to raise funds also I have no experience of compressors so I am wary of buying one until I work out exactly what I need I hope a faster cutter will make the process easier and a bit quicker as these bowls take days to make!
