JUst a quick post as I am headed out to an event.

I was requested (told really) that I make a plywood bowl for my aunt’s birthday.

This is the first plywood bowl I have made with an inner lip. I left the wall a little thick as I was worried about the laminations separating if I cut it too close. I have previously made a very thin walled plywood bowl, that has now broken in a couple of pieces… Live and learn I guess. Turned out pretty nice, although I did see a little tear out on one side of the bowl. I looks nicer after a few coats of wipe-on-poly.

Cheers all!
