Title: Burnt bowl
Post by: jimbo on July 14, 2010, 03:07:02 am

This my version of useing the blow torch on a turning, the wood is macrocarpa and is 15"dia. and 5' depth, there was a number of hair line cracks in this bowl and I carved it with a proxon carver then got to work with the blow torch, I kept a spray bottle of water as it kept catching fire, a good exercise.
