Cherry Emerging Bowls

A pair of bowls turned from Curly Cherry. The technique simulates a bowl emerging from a block of wood. Turned as a unit, deconstructed, and then turned separately. Completely lathe turned and hand sanded. C&C are welcomed.

Leo,
This one is fantastic. You should do a PDF & add it to our library. Someone might want to make one themselves.

There was an article about these a while back, I forget where. One way is to turn the outside halves of 2 bowls, then separate and turn the insides.

Thanks for the kind words folks. Really appreciate the comments. I'll have to work on the instructions. It's complicated.
