Holly bowl turned green. Put right into dehydrator to produce the cracks. Filled cracks with mica powder and CA. Finish turned 2 days after turning green.
This Natural edge bowl is from a locally downed tree. The tree had 3 distinct trunks on the outside which merged into one on the inside causing the 3 humps on each end of the bowl. The dimensions are about 9" round by 2 1/4" high.
It was made around May 2022.
This is a plum bowl that is about 6 inches wide and 2 inches tall. The wood is from a log from a tree that fell down, I rough turned this bowl and about 5 others, but sadly this is one of the only ones that did not crack.
Does the inside shape of a bowl "almost always" follow the outside shape? I'm starting to experiment with more than a basic symmetrical shape, and not sure how strictly the two are tied together.
