2 Bowls and a Mug
« on: October 31, 2015, 12:41:53 am »
This first bowl is a dual bowl and was inspired by BrianA from another board.  The woods used are Holly and Sapele.  It was finished with tung oil.






This second bowl is also a dual bowl however I changed the smaller bowl so that I could put a "dip" bowl in.  The bowls were cut from 3/4 ( 19mm) BB then stained a walnut and finished with shellac.








As I get thirsty at the craft shows I make a mug or two and use it at the shows.  This mug was cut from pine and finished with tung oil.

The bowls look nice but I like the mug.  I may have to make one.
I can see it is made of rings is there a easy way to line them up for gluing.

The way that I made this one was I carefully cut the centers out so that they were as close to exactly the same as possible then after gluing them together I cleaned up the inside, glued the bottom on and shaped the mug and put the flat spot on for the handle.

DW.

Thank you so much for the credit. I thought I would post my original chip dip bowl.

Thanks again
