Silver Maple, 13" at largest diameter.
When doing feet, I cut a recess for holding during hollowing as opposed to a tenon. I cut the recess a little deeper and try concave the bottom in preparation for carving the feet. After sanding the upper part of the bowl I draw circles on the lip of the recess to locate and define my feet. I then carve away the recess rim around the feet, sand and finish.Cody:
Very nice looker. great work, I like the buttons for the feet. Were they off set turned?
Thanks CharlieNot too shabby Cody!
Really an awesome piece!!
Congrats!
Thanks MarkWonderful artistry Cody - congrats.
ThanksBeautiful! skillful artistic work! But then I don't have to tell you that! Anyone with that kind of skill knows it! THANKS for showing us! Keep it up too!
ThanksHey Cody...I make it a habit to capture photos of items I discover here on IAP (and elsewhere) that are possible future projects that I might attempt. Your bowl is now in that file. I like everything about it. The individual feet (vs a full round turned foot or base) really has my attention. Great work and artistic vision!
ThanksVery nice Cody!
ThanksCongrats Cody! awesome looking piece
ThankdCody, that is one heck of a turning, it's nice and thin and the NE along with the three point base really shows it off. It's gorgeous!!!
