Ok. More questions since I’m intrigued. What do you slice the bowl with and then do you place spacers to hold the 2 pieces stable to then use router for pewa install? What’s the process?

It can get fairly involved, but the short answer is I cut recesses for the pewa (or at least a few of them), then cut it on the bandsaw. The bandsaw jig I use is my "upgrade" to John Beaver's - he sells plans at johnbeaver.net
