As Wood Turns | Not So Basic Segmented Patchwork Turned Bowl @AsWoodTurns | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 6 hours ago

At club meeting, we had a great introduction to segmented turning. Ken, who presented went the extra (many) mile(s) to prepare segmented bowl kits with segments and a base for a bowl.
I decided to elevate my bowl by leaving out random segments and by swapping the base for one that looks better and will survive the ravages of humidity changes.
My base is a random glue up of scraps from previous projects. To stabilize this glue up, I glued it to oak veneer and cross banded one piece before gluing it into the base. Please see the video for details and the sequence.
I also left out random segments from intermediate rings. This presented its own set of difficulties but nothing a set of large band clamps could not handle.
The bowl is various woods, five rings of 16 segments each for 80 segments total. Even though some segments are missing, they still had to be there to complete the turning. The bowl is 8.5 inches diameter and 3 inches tall and finished with walnut oil.
Enjoy.
p.s. If you would like a more in depth demonstration, please contact me for an IRD (Zoom Demo) on this or other topics.
