Really great looking project, Gordon. If you can't find a dip bowl like you want, turn one. It would be far better than one you could buy and it would finish off as a set. Thanks for sharing and happy new year.
David Clauson Thanks, David. I'd like to use a glass bowl because of the washing involved but now you have me thinking it might be a good idea to make a matching Maple bowl. If it was rinsed properly it should last a long time and I could always make more. Thanks for the idea; I will see what the BOSS says. Thanks again for watching.

Carl Jacobson Thanks Carl! I appreciate you watching. Actually, I'm surprised you have time to watch videos, as busy as you must be with your own!!!! Happy New Year, Carl.
Great video and project. I have been thinking about making one of those bowls but with making Christmas presents for people I haven't had a chance yet. On the to do list though. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice piece Gordon. Good luck convincing your wife, it doesn't seem to work in this house. Check with a cooking supply store for that shallower bowl. They sell them for preparing ingredients. Thats where I got my set. Thanks for sharing. Fred
Hey Gordon you did a great job here. I've turned several of these with great response from the receivers of the gift. I've had some problems with warpage in my last two...I think it was due to the hard knots that were included. No major problem though as it doesn't affect the amount of chips it can hold!
I love this idea Gord. I have an 11" round that I planned to use for a tray, but, at less than 2" thick it would otherwise be too thin for a "regular" dip bowl. I believe +David Clauson's idea of a turned bowl insert would be the answer to my dilemma. Thanks for a great video!
Nice job, Gordon. I am a novice turner and an wondering about your olive oil finish. Does olive oil need to be reapplied periodically? Does it ever turn rancid like a vegetable oil will? Thanks for sharing your talents. John
John Emmett Glad you liked it, John. Olive oil needs to be replenished just like any other oil. I've never had a problem with it turning rancid. I've heard of people saying it will but it's always second hand information; always happened to someone else, never to them. Can't guarantee anything, just my own personal experience. .....Gord
Nice tray Gord. I did a smaller one out of a piece of walnut crotch I was given. Not as deep or as large as I would have liked but I haven't found a good wood stretcher yet. Oh and veggies are ok providing they are deep fried or chocolate covered.
Thanks Rick. I will take mine chocolate covered if it's all the same to you. Could almost eat bark if it's covered in a nice milk chocolate. Take care, .....Gord
Joe Ritz Thanks Joe!! My wife doesn't agree with us; obviously, she doesn't have the finely developed palate that you and I are blessed with!!! Hope 2015 is good to you, Joe.
+William wolf Hi William, A friend made the logo coins for me quite a few years ago on a CNC machine where he worked. Unfortunately, he no longer works there and I don’t have access to more. I’m not sure where I will get more when I run out of them. Sorry I’m no help in locating them for you! Take care, .....Gord

A good salad bowl finish or the olive oil finish. Wash and reapply a light coat. Should be good for years. Thanks
Looks like it could work for a 'vegie' tray, too. Thanks for the video, I plan on making on in cherry.
A ‘what’ tray? LOL! Glad you liked it, Mitch. Thanks for watching!

Gordon Rock I had olive oil used to finish a cutting board go rancid. For this reason, I prefer a curing oil, such as walnut oil, for use as a finish.
David Walser This is the first time someone has ever told me it happened to them. Thank you, David, for the input!
veggies - geesh - how silly :-) Nice work and video - thanks for all you do...
