turning an unusual material - fun!

Here's something fun that I did yesterday.

If you want to smile, take 5 minutes and watch as I turn a salad bowl from a cauliflower. After the bowl was completed, I applied a food safe finish (butter) and baked it for dinner!

Inspired by nature, of course.....

Enjoy!

Ray, potatoes have been done, but you eat the shavings. See this:

I want to see someone turn a watermelon.😉 I think some have turned a grain of rice (without soy sauce).

 

[Bill Boehme]

Is the cauliflower bowl dishwasher safe?

Very clever and fun project. I guess that one shouldn't try this at 3000 RPM.

What's next -- washing the turning tools in the kitchen sink?

I'm not generally fond of natural edge bowls, but his one is... delicious.

Thanks for today's smile.

Very Funny. thanks for posting. I have turned a grain of rice but had to soak it with CA. It's too fragile. It's what got me started turning the micro miniature goblets.

So can you turn a hard boiled egg?😀

 

[John Fabre]

What about a pumpkin?

.... I applied a food safe finish (butter) and baked it for dinner!...

Well, maybe it is or maybe it isn't ... my cardiologist told me after my triple bypass that I am not supposed to eat butter ... or anything else that tastes good because it is bad for me. But, then he didn't say anything about using it as a finish on turned food. 😀

Cindy,

Great vid and wonderful presentation. Always nice to see someone having fun at what they do. Maybe you could sell these to some sushi chefs..............😀

And talk about going green!!!

What a hoot! I sent the link to the journal's production team and they had fun watching it! Now they want to try out a cauliflower cover, maybe for the spring issue .....

Maybe the team could apply some gaussian blur to that cauliflower cover...

Turn it, bake it and eat it.😀

 

[Clifton C]

I’m going for coleslaw… I’m thinking a Strong Hold and woodworm would hold a cabbage. So, a skew or a swept back bowl gouge?

[KurtB]

The skew would give the nicest long skinny pieces for the slaw!

So, is this going to become the latest kitchen gadget? 🙂
