Nick, that's coming along great. I can't wait to see the finished bowl :eusa_danc

Now I understand what you are talking about. I guess it is a toss up though. Lots of shavings or lots of time gluing up itty bitty pieces.

Welcome back to the shop Nick :icon_thum I hope they got you fixed right this time!

The pix do a great job of explaining the process and reflects how complex and time consuming the prep work is. Looking forward to the finished bowl

nick,
Looks really good so far. I was wondering what you use to cut your angles on the wood. Do you use an aftermarket miter Gage or a miter saw? I know that you have to have those angles right on or it will throw off the whole ring. Be blessed friend.

I built this miter sled http://www.turnedwood.com/framesled.html
Once set up it works great. I have made it so I can cut all of the different angles. Nick

I worked on this some more today. One more layer to add. Then finish. I hope to bring this on the 28th.
