Interesting design, nicely executed. Is that the natural color or was it stained ? Seems to have quite an orange hue to it.

That’s beautiful. Nice photo, too.

Hey MonteCristo. The Maple was somewhat lighter and whiter prior to finishing but the walnut oil added a little orange and darkened the piece quite a bit.

Really interesting design. How did you do the slots – bandsaw, tablesaw?

Kogut, the slot are router cut.

-- Pete

WOW!

Nicely done. Very nicely done! Did you use/make some sort of a jig for cutting the slots?

Hi Jonathan. Yes I use a router on a table set to the center line of my lathe. Then using the indexing feature I can cut as many or as few slots as I wish.

That bowl is definitely a beauty. Congratulations.

Pete,

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I appreciate the explanation.

Pete – I’m really digging you negative space pieces. I’d love to see how you’ve got your router mounted.
