  1. A few months ago my son told me he was going to start making "river" tables. When he told me I was surprised because I didn't really know what is a river table. Secondly, he is in his 40's and had never expressed any interest in wood working that I knew of. More recently, he and his lovely bride have expanded into making charcuterie boards. Once again I wasn't sure what that even was. Well, I have to say, he's doing some very nice things. Stick with me, this is wood turning related. He has given me several cut offs and most of the time they are too small to do much with so I use them for ornaments and such. Recently, he gave me some red elm pieces and they were big enough to turn a couple of little bowls, bigger bowl is about 7" diameter and the smaller is slightly less, maybe 6". I have to say, I had no idea how pretty is the grain in red elm. It looks very open grain but it doesn't feel or sand that way. These pieces were kiln dried and about 2" thick before turning. Since the wood was already dried the bowls are single turned to finish. Red elm is a little dusty but cuts nicely and these have very little sanding on them. They have minwax antique oil for a finish.
  2. A maple bowl in kind of a tulip shape, 12" diameter and 4" deep. I thought about "framing" the pattern with some heavy shading around the edge, decided not to and just left it plain. I turned this to be functional so it has bees wax for a finish. Steve
  3. Most anyone who visits this forum will know I spent a week at Marc Adams in September. The guest teacher was Glenn Lucas. During that week I had the opportunity to use some of his signature bowl gouges. I was very impressed with the cut I got from them, enough so that I ordered his 1/2", 5/8", and the 5/8" bottom feeder bowl gouges. This is the first bowl I've used them on. It is hard maple, twice turned, harder than nails, and about 9" in diameter. In the picture I have sanded it with 150 grit only. I used a 3" disk in my drill and this is after about 5 minutes. In this picture the rim has not been sanded at all. It is the first time ever I started sanded with anything other than 60 or 80 grit on the inside of a bowl. I could start with 150 grit because there was virtually no tear out, even in the "problem" areas. FWIW, I have since finished sanded the bowl inside and I started with 320 grit on the rim. This is not meant to be a recommendation to buy his tools. I'm sure the techniques I learned from him contributed as well. It's not unusual for me to spend an hour or more sanding a bowl this size. I might have had 15 minutes on this one. Steve
  4. There was a lot more sap wood in this bowl than I expected. Still, the bark stayed on well and it warped nicely without cracking. The sapwood also makes a nice contrast I think. The bottom side. Steve
