It was an Irish grind bowl gouge, about 5/8” or a bit bigger. I used a shearing cut all the way to avoid chipping the corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a lathe (yet). I shouldn't think about a lathe (slaps head). Sorry Chip, you're too late. Just give in and buy the lathe. Gary, that's a very nice plate! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gary Beasley Posted March 12, 2019 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 I made a bracelet, earrings and pendant for my wife this week. The bracelet was three 12 segment rings of cocobolo, bloodwood and kingwood sliced into thinner rings and glued up in a staggered position to create the diagonal pattern. Finished with CA and polished. The other pieces were finished with laquer and made from sections of the same woods. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Beasley Posted March 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 She was in on it. She has the bits to finish off the necklace and earrings. As a matter of fact shes wearing it to work today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
