Popular Post cashew Posted May 16, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 (edited) A little experiment I'm trying with my scroll saw -- a flower cut like a bowl -- still have some kinks and angles to work out -This is mostly freeform cutting based on an actual flower frrom my yard -- it's not something I've seen anybody try quite like this but I could have missed it somewhere -I think I may have to go bigger to make it work as an actual bowl - more shaping with the dremel to do also Edited May 16, 2020 by cashew amazingkevin, Dave Monk, meflick and 9 others 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCtoolguy Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 Very unique idea. I too look forward to seeing more pics of the finished bowl. I'd also like to hear the process to create it. So far, it's beautiful. cashew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolf Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 I love the wood choice! If you decide to do more of this type of work you may want to invest in something a bit beefier than the Dremel. The Fordom tools are nice but I have an old 3/4 horse motor with a flexshaft that I found at a yard sale. It has a chuck on one end that will hold 1/4 shaft burrs etc. But even with the dremel and some https://kutzall.com/collections/burrs you can remove a lot of wood fast.

How about doing a tutorial on the process? maybe once I get it figured out myself -- this one the wood decided it wanted to go a bit different direction than where I intended -- a nice one, but I'll re-try soon -- and I might as well see where this one wants to go while I'm at it ----she was singing to me when her petals were being formed------- and to all of you for your interest Edited May 18, 2020 by cashew don watson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
