Scrollsaw Bowl


Recommended Posts

Nicely done, I like the different stripes of wood species you have there.. go well together.

I've been wanting to try this sometime, I have a scrap piece of glue up from making a lazy susan and a pattern from Steve Good all on it. Got side tracked with a order for something else and lately my spare time going to a project car..

Wow! Very nice! At this stage of my scrolling, I don't want to try attempting a bowl.

I encourage you to give it a try.  Toughest part of the cutting is following the line, while cutting on an angle.  Saws with tilting heads make this task much easier.  Sanding the glued up rings smooth can be a bit tedious, especially if you don't have anything other than a random orbit sander.

Carole Rothman is the master of these things.  Check out one of her books.  Lots of great ideas for all skill levels and very good instructions on how to make them.

Bowls are not that hard to make. Just requires attention to detail and a lot of sanding. Placement of drill holes is very important.

As per Carole will say of making bowls on the scrollsaw, we don’t say SANDING we  say shaping, it sounds better that way. LOL
