Hot Fingers! My first bowl

dimanche 27 juillet 2014

'Allo,



I've been playing on Skew's little Ledacraft making various kinds of spindles for about a month now (Hair pins, chopsticks, knitting needles etc). So, it was only a matter of time before I asked for help with a bowl. This weekend he came home with a slab of nicely coloured/figured camphor laurel for me. So, while he hogged into a big piece of extra hard 'who knows what' on the woodfast, I got us both a little 'green camphor laurel' stoned on the Leda.



It is a tutorial piece so he mounted it for me to show me how, made the first two cuts to show me 'up hill. vs 'down hill' and reverse chucked it to make sure it was secure, but other than that all he did was point and make suggestions. The hot EEE fingers are all mine.



I'm rather chuffed it didn't end up in pieces or with a hole in the bottom.

Skew says to say it doesn't have a flat bottom either. I'm guessing that's a good thing.
