Oval Fluted Bowls

These bowls were turned while I demonstrated at the Florida Woodturning Symposium earlier this year. I finally got around to sanding and applying a finish to them.

They were turned two at a time using a paper glue joint and a sacrificial piece of wood between the bowls. Before turning, I veneered the blanks and carved out the interior on my CNC.

The woods and veneer are maple, walnut, and makore.

I call these oval-fluted bowls although they’re like little boat bowls.

Two demonstrations and two bowls per demo. Needless to say, I have a boatload of them now.
