Small Bowls (Read 855 times)

Don Stephan WR Addict Offline WR Rocks! Posts: 2,659 Cincinnati, Ohio Ohio USA Gender:	Small Bowls Aug 28^th, 2016 at 7:16pm Had some cutoffs, maybe 3 x 3 x 1.5 to 2" high, from blocking out turned lidded box blanks. Decided to turn some novelty small scale salad mixing bowls. What a wonderful exercise. Used almost all the same tools. Was willing to experiment with tool control a bit because "it was just a novelty bowl" and didn't have a lot of time invested.

Seems like a lot of work to take a pic with my 15 year old camera, plug into the computer, start GIMP, load the photo, compress, save, THEN post here when so secondary to the purpose of the original post.

Don, as I said, I've turned small bowls like the ones you described, i also posted them.
While you are certainly not required to post something simply because you mentioned it, there are many members who would benefit from seeing them. I understand if it's a hassle to post pics, I was simply asking for myself and the other (close to 8000) members.
