Ten Inch White Oak and Walnut

[W.Y.]

Large 10" X 5" white oak and walnut bowl . Same bowl but viewed from opposite sides .



I sold one almost exactly the same to a young lady for mothers day last year so I just now got around to making a replacement of it .

Looks great. How did you do the glue up?

You been 'googling' optical illusions?

Far out dude(in my best Spicoli voice).



What kind of glue up times did you end up with? I am guess 'sanding sealer' too, to keep the timbers from 'blending'....

Glue up times are anywhere from a couple hours to overnight depending on what stage and how much of a hurry I get in. Actual time of making them is the shortest part . Glue up time is the longest part .
No sanding sealer required to stop 'blending' on maple and walnut like that but sometimes when using padauk I get some 'blending'.

Well Mr. Young, I have one of them ring-masters for my Shopsmith. I pulled it out last year when I joined your other site. I didn't do so well. I think this weekend, I'm gonna give it another shot.

Good luck with that and I hope some of the videos I made about many stages of its use as shown on my Woodworking Videos board within my WWF site will help you out .
Mine has paid for itself many times over with sale of bowls and other things I have made with it.
