Re: SUSPENDED BOWL
Hello chaps, Bill,I will try to lay it out as best I can I don't use measures as such ,just think it up and turn it and modify as it progresses,but I think it is, about these, the Bowl was finished dimention, 24in circum, by 7-1/2 across,by 6 deep. the base was18in circum, by 5-!/2 across,by 1 thick the top fin turned on the lathe, 2 long a 1space the bottom finial turned on lathe2-1/2 to allow for a little spigot in the base the spiraled supports 12 long by 3/4 dia. also a little spiral along the top of the bines/pitch was made with a very small 1/4router beading bit,before hollowing,although the supports are Oak I used a thin stock support on my table,very tricky blew a couple before I got it right,I milled the tops and left a little spigot on the bottom,I suppose you could do anything you want,the tops were supposed to be little thistles, but I'm a wee bit clumsy with the arthritis so settled for milk churns,the bowl was Maple, turned on the lathe quite thin but it is quite a strong wood and will hold,the angle of the supports depends on the circumference of the bowl and the base, you have to drill a very small hole where you want them to join the bowl and insert a wee dowel, I used a matchstick for that, devilishly cunning these Brits, the base you can shape any way you fancy but best to use a heavy wood for the balance,all these measurements are approx.and off the top of my head,because it is all finished you see,so if you fancy just get stuck in and have fun, MAC On Feb 19, 3:46 pm, Bill Bulkeley bulke...@mmnet.com.au wrote: Great Bowl Mac looks really nice tell usmore about how you did it the type of spirals etc it would be great to see a much larger pic of it Bill - Original Message - From: MACSWAG davidcraig.dil...@virgin.net To: Legacy Ornamental Mills legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, February 19, 2010 12:16 PM Subject: Re: SUSPENDED BOWL Tim I tried to send an enlarged version but it has vanished,any clues,MAC.

SUSPENDED BOWL
Hello chaps,I hope you can see my picture,it was taken by old George and it is a wee bit fuzzy,it is nothing grand just an upturned bowl with designs cut using a dremmel type power cutter,the pointy bits are just quick turned finials and the base a wee bit of scrap wood cut on the router table,all hand sanded and waxed,it doesn't look too bad does it, MAC. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Legacy Ornamental Mills group.

Re: SUSPENDED BOWL
Your being too modest! It goes to show, it's not the material but the craftsmanship that counts! Looks really good to me! I'm guessing the bowl and finials on the bowl and base are hand turned, and the supports that hold the bowl were turned on your revo? Try sizing the picture so it's about 600 to 800 pixels wide. Then we can see the details better. Thanks for taking the time to figure out how to post photos. It's a real treat to see what you guys are doing! -Tim - Original Message - From: MACSWAG davidcraig.dil...@virgin.net To: Legacy Ornamental Mills legacy-ornamental-mills@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, February 18, 2010 4:20 PM Subject: SUSPENDED BOWL Hello chaps,I hope you can see my picture,it was taken by old George and it is a wee bit fuzzy,it is nothing grand just an upturned bowl with designs cut using a dremmel type power cutter,the pointy bits are just quick turned finials and the base a wee bit of scrap wood cut on the router table,all hand sanded and waxed,it doesn't look too bad does it, MAC. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Legacy Ornamental Mills group.
