Bonus Bowl

[Cwalker935]

I keep a messy shop and only do a thorough clean up when things get completely out of hand or Lida starts to make threats. Well it got so bad that I broke down and tried to get things better organized last week. The clean up p yielded two bonus; a happy wife and a new project. I found a segmented bowl gone wrong from a few years ago where I had miscalculated and ended up with a hole in the bottom. I decided to try to salvage it and made a plug for the bottom. Here is the result, ash and koa segments.

That's the very reason I keep my wife out of the shop!
Nice salvage job, so it was worth it just for that.

New bottom is cherry

Nice bowl and a good way to salvage the piece.

OK, so now I am officially jealous! Getting into segmented bowls has been on my list for.... forever! I appreciate seeing this Cody!

From my eye, the alignment is excellent; and the oops plug is a very nice accent element and blends in as if it was intended.

Very, very nice Cody.

There are no miscalculations.... only re-design opportunities.

On my to-do list -- hope I do as well.
