These bowls were an experiment with intersecting surfaces. They are hard maple with African mahogany accents. Posted: ...

I decided to have a little fun with this bowl project. I'm clearly no Frank Howarth! The bowl is maple and African mahogany - 10.5" diameter and 6" tall. Let me know what you think in the comments.

With a working replica of this lathe a contemporary artisan has helped to revive these techniques, assisting in the reintroduction of bowl turning to Sweden, the USA, Germany, France, and even Japan.

This lathe is not a CNC machine, but judging from the wooden bowl he turned out we’d say this project is a huge success.
