Ambrosia Maple Hollow Form

[GuardianKnight83]

Here is my first attempt at a hollow form. I cut the top and the bottom from the same piece of wood and used my bowl turning techniques to turn and finish the insides. Then I glued them back together and finished the top. After that I used a jam chuck in the headstock with a live center in the tail stock to finish the bottom. Came out pretty good I think for not having any dedicated hollowing tools. Next time I will try two contrasting colors so the seam won't be as noticeable.

Nice job. You could also do a decorative bead or element to hide the seam. I like how you lined up the grain.
