Been planning on more Ringmaster bowls since DIL sold one. Steve inspired me to do some carving and burning . Has been maybe three years since doing a RM bowl so had to relearn some. When cutting the first ring it is waste so not worried if it stayed in one piece. So in cutting the first ring on two large bowls it broke and one hit the deflector and then bounced on my forehead. So i put my face shield on (open top) and the first one on next bowl broke and dangedif it didn’t hit the top of my head.

Now you're cooking.. oh wait, you can't cook in those, can you???

 

Looking good.

 

How about using a NASA flight suit and helmet.?

A head can only take so much.

Keep in mind, "three strikes and you're out."

 

BTW, bowls look great as does the burning...what finish will you use?

Nice Gerald.  Too bad you had to take some lumps to get you there.  Glad you survived the projectiles without much damage.  We have a dangerous hobby sometimes.

Looking good Gerald. I didn't realize you had a ringmaster.

Thanks for the comments.Plan to use lacquer on these. My fav is Watco but have used more and  more lacquer of late.

@Gerald...just saw H-F has these on sale right now; they might work...just sayin
