Holly and Sapelle Bowl

Recommended Posts

This bowl is 7 1/2 inches long x 6 inches wide x 3 inches tall.  It was cut from 3/4 sapelle I cut 1/4 inch wide strips of 3/4 holly for this bowl as well.  The bowl was cut using a 26.9 deg. left side down table tilt.  Cut with a #9 ultra reverse.  Finished with shellac.

Man thats some great work

 

Now you did that on your scroll saw with strips of wood?  Not a lathe?

 

Please let us in in the details as I am very interested.  Seen these before but never realized they were scrolled items.

Tony these bowls are pretty easy to do.  It takes just a little attention to detail ( the small things get you on one of these )  There is a book that was published a couple of years back by Fox Chapel Publishing called Wooden Bowls From the Scroll Saw by Carole Rothman.  Here is a link to it on Amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Wooden-Bowls-Scroll-Easy---Make/dp/1565234332/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1440036080&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=wooded+bowls+from+the+scroll+saw The book discusses and has projects to make bowls with the scroll saw that frankly are amazing.  I have had folks swear that I used a lathe when I do not even own one.  Essentially you cut a ring at an angle then a smaller ring at the same angle and then glue them together, sand and shape and finish... and you get one like I just made.  The possibilities for making this type of bowl are endless and can be a lot of fun to design and make.

DW. Thanks for the link. I am ordering one of these books today and this will be the scroll items I will be giving for Christmas presents this year. So perfect timing for me. I have made some bowls myself, but not quite like these. I can't wait to get started. You have truly inspired me with this one
