Woodturning | $120 Bowl From Scrap Wood - A New Way to Make a Bowl From a Board / Economy Bowl

- In this video I laminate some shop scrap into a 12"x12" x 7/8" board and come up with a new way to cut rings and center the base. This was a complete experiment after a failed attempt at cutting rings on a scroll saw due to the thickness and hardness of the stock. I really had fun with this project and got a great looking piece out of it! I hope you enjoy this video, thank you to all who watch!

Very smart jig. I only wish my lathe had a reverse option. Beautiful bowl!
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching!
A handy tool for your bowl press and clamping in general is a 2 inch diameter spherical washer fully hardened they last forever and always align for full contact and pressure straight down It takes a top and bottom to make one spherical washer cost for a 2 inch (OD) spherical washer (one inch ID) is about $20
Thanks Charlie! I had a bearing on that press that was perfect but I broke it using the press for something it was not intended for. Thanks for watching!
Pretty slick, Slick.
Thank you Scott, I appreciate it.
Who's a clever boy! Love it.
If only I were a boy and not an old man! Haha
It’s a beautiful bowl, very well executed and you have every right to be happy with the finished product. I know I’m two years behind but Gary of The Papa 1947 makes fantastic bowls from boards. It’s nice to catch up and thank you for having me around 🌞
Hi Ray, I appreciate you watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman And I appreciate you responding. Compliments of the season to you and yours 🌞
To yours as well Ray!
Awesome congratulations 👍
Thank you William!
I like your jig, great idea. It might help if you put an “X” of double sticky tape on the back of your board before you cut the rings. Maybe less shifting of the rings as you cut. Great bowl.
Thanks Jerry! I appreciate you watching!
I did started a6 year apprenticeship in 1967 as a Centre Lathe Turner in one of the Best engineering companies in the South West of England. I was taught how to use a face on castings weighing at 1/2 a ton and held them on a faceplate with 4, 5 or 6 clamps. But with very thin pieces we always turned with the tool upside down and the lathe going backwards as this allows the swarf/chippings to fall away and not jam the tool. Our face plate also had six or 8 slots in them at strategic places so as not to weaken the face plate, this way gave easy access to clamp any shape any size. Please do not take any equipment at any size. Please do not this as any kind of criticism as I think you are one of the best teacher I have seen on You tube and even though I had a lot of time turning all sorts of metal, wood is totally different. many tanks again.
Thanks Pete, everything is very secure I assure you! Thanks for watching!

LEWIS THAT IS A AWESOM JIG .I LOVE IT THE BOWL .THANK YOU MY FRIEND
Thank you Doug, I really appreciate you watching buddy!
Love it
Thanks Gerry!
Brilliant Solution to something I have been wrestling with myself for years. Well Done! I will attempt YOUR methodology this week! My sincere appreciation for sharing Sir.
Thanks! Love to know how you make out with it! I appreciate you watching!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman Worked pretty well. I would like to send you two photos. I slightly modified your procedure & to show you my result. If you have messenger, that would be great. I am “Bryan Rigg” on Messenger
Great job sir
Thanks Tazz I appreciate it!
very nice
Thank you Robert!
You might consider making a jig that mounts to the tool rest or banjo to hold the parting tool captive (similar to a coring jig)
I likely will but this was the first run so I didn’t get all the way down the rabbit hole. Thanks for watching!
brilliant
Thanks Chris!
Yup, very cool. Glad that I was able to catch the premiere.
I appreciate it! Thanks!
Looks awesome and that jig is genius👏👏👏
Thanks buddy, I appreciate id
Don't you love when a plan comes together? Looks great!
Thanks Hodge, I appreciate it Buddy!
Never would have thought of that. Very cool! Thanks.
Certainly not a new concept, just my take on how it is best for me to make them. I appreciate you watching!
Cereal box might work for a backer if you have a drum sander you could probably glue it up to it and then just sand away the cereal box.
That is a possibility, it would come off easily for sure. Thank you for watching!
The guy I watched made a miter box type jig that set on his tool rest that guided the parting tool. There are a lot of ways of getting it done. This bowl is a beauty! It looks iridescent on the inside.
Thanks Jeff, I appreciate it!
Clever. And pretty. Winner!
Thank you Valerie! Appreciate you watching!
You should use what we use in the CNC world for work holding and your corner clamps put some painters tape on the backside of your project board and the face of your faceplate there and use my CA glue to help hold it another way a little more expensive way but avid CNC sells these composite nail guns with composite nails and and that's a wonderful work holding method little pricey though good job buddy
Thanks Barry! My goal was to make something functional that people could duplicate with items they already have. Appreciate the suggestions and you watching!
Wow, your method of cutting the rings are simpler AND safer than what I have seen. That is a beautiful bowl.
Thank you James, I appreciate it!
It turned out, absolutely gorgeous! The color of the wood is just out of this world. I really appreciate you sharing your talent but also the talk. The talk is very educational, especially for us newbies. Thanks again.
Thanks so much Lynda, I appreciate it!
What can I say? Genius!
Hey Bob, thanks for watching!
It is absolutely stunningly beautiful and magnificent.
Thanks so much Kobie! I appreciate it!
so impressed a bowl out of a flat shape, very cool and looks great!
Thank you Kathryn. I appreciate to watching
I love how it looks silky on the inside when the light hits it just right.
Thank you, some woods polish up very well.
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman you do very beautiful work. I went on a watching binge this morning. Ooohing and ahhhhing at all the gorgeous stuff you have made. It makes me wish I had your talent in making wood into works of art.
All just years of practice, anyone can do it!
Simply, Stunning!!
Thank you Gayle!
That was a lot of work for you but with what you ended up with I'm sure it was well worth it that's a beautiful bowl thank you for sharing this. James
Thanks James, I have the jig now so much faster going forward!
Love segments! They stay a mystery when taking that thin wood and make a bowl! Lewis, I'm sure you've helped someone make that jig they've been wanting to use. Thanks for sharing your creativity with me again. Stay safe, Vickie
Thank you Vickie, I appreciate it! I wouldn’t call these segments though. Just strips. Stay safe!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman I say they are cuz you cut them up and put them together, ergo segment. 😆 🤣
I cannot argue with that!
@@TheKlondikeCraftsman check out Gary over at The Papa 1947. I told him to get with you on a ring jig.
I will have no issue making a jig, just wanted to ensure the big picture worked out before I go the next step. Thanks though, be happy to chat with Gary if he reaches out!
The man's utube is papa 1947
I had not seen his when I made this. His process is very similar for sure. Thanks for watching Shawn!
Sweet
Thanks Joseph!
Beautiful color combination.
Thank you Randy!
Pretty cool this Projekt. Best Regards from Germany.
Thank you, I appreciate you watching!
Excellent work, thanks for showing us this
Thank you for watching Dom!
Cool process, and a beautiful bowl!!!
Thank you Bill!
Beautiful creation and an ingenious route of achieving it. Thanks for sharing it with us. It was an amazing experience to watch your plan come together in such an amazing result!t. I hope you enjoy doing these videos because I, for one, sure love watching them.
Hey Carson, I do enjoy making videos. I have been renovating my sons house lately and that is taking all my time. Hopefully back in the shop soon! I appreciate you watching!
Well, that was different. Thinking outside the box can be very interesting even if isn't perfect first time. That tiny mis-alignment is something to think on. The backing board was my first thought, also murrayaforsman's comment below about taking the tool thickness into consideration even if the tool is one sixteenth the cut will surely be more, maybe 50 or 100% more. Anyway, food for thought. The piece is beautiful.
Thanks Stewart! The kerf would not affect alignment though, the distance between the strips remains the same. I think I got some flex in the rings in my press. Thanks for watching!
First time I've seen your channel, but I've subscribed. Your a real Gentleman in the fact you don't expect the viewer to watch the long tedious parts if your work and edit them out. I really like the bowl and look forward to watching more of your work. From the UK, best wishes.
Thank you Jon, I appreciate it!
Once again beautiful as always !
Thank you Steve!
I am in awe…. Great results, love it!
Thank you Brenda!
Beautiful bowl, thanks for sharing your idea.

Amazing and beautiful bowl Lewis. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Tony, I appreciate to!
Turned out great. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching Lou!
Wow. Thanks for sharing this experiment.
Thank you for watching!
Beautiful Piece, interesting process. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you Allen!
Gorgeous piece.
I appreciate it Jim!
Outstanding!! How about a 45 degree cut with parting tool. Seems that would equal the wall thickness better. Ring thickness about = thickness of the board. I like your choice of back ground music. Chatoyance of wood very nice.
45 would work on 3/4 thick stock. This was 7/8 so there was a slight variation. You can make them whatever you want as long as you allow for wall thickness. Thank you for watching!
Outstanding!!! Bob
Thank you Bob! I appreciate it!
Wow excellent video. Great idea. Beautiful bowl.
Thank you Paul, I appreciate you watching!
Really enjoyed this technique thanks
Thank you George
Absolutely love this project and how it turned out - thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching!
A beautiful piece Lewis, plus a cleverly thought out way to cut the rings. Thank you for sharing it.
Thank you Ian and thanks for watching!
Really nice looking bowl!
Thank you!
I may be wrong on this, but worth passing on. I think the video that you can not remember may be one done by Jim Rogers. He has a TH-cam channel.
Re: Alignment of wood pieces. I aligned my bowl with the wood strips of a different color. On the first bowl I turned, I did this by eye and experienced the very slight misalignment like what you experienced. On the second bowl I made, I slightly scored the wood with ruler and an Xacto knife on a single radius line from center to edge. This provided me a more accurate way of aligning the wood on the glue up and can be turned or sanded away afterwards. This seemed to eliminate the alignment issues I experienced. Trying to align the wood by eye seems to be the problem.
Thanks, that might be the guy, I’ll check it out! I think my alignment was from some flex when gluing the rings back. Interesting idea on the score mark though, something to consider. I appreciate you watching.
That’s a beautiful piece 👏
Thank you Brian, I appreciate you watching!
Beautiful bowl, well done sir!
Thank you Wesley, I appreciate it!
Gosh that's lovely! Such an interesting method you used! It makes me want to try it, sometime. Thanks for sharing this piece with us!
Very welcome Stephanie! I appreciate you watching!
Excellent project, my friend!!!
Thanks DD!
Lovely bowl. Well done.
Thank you Bill!
that’s a gorgeous bowl!
Thank you Richard
What a beautiful bowl, and a great process.
Thank you Joseph, I appreciated it!
Great technique.. wonderful result.. well done Lewis.
Thanks Steve, I appreciate it!
Hi Lewis, That is beautiful and I really like the jig. One tip I learned a long time ago is to sprinkle a little salt on the glue joint between the layers. It doesn't affect the glue at all but stops the rings from moving around when pressure is applied.
Great video Lewis.
Take care mate.
Cheers, Huw
Thanks Huw!
Absolutely beautiful bowl.
Thank you Jack, I appreciate it!
Very beautiful and creative bowl, thanks for sharing this video with us 🙏🏼
Thank you for watching Hasan!
Very beautiful! I can only hope. Just got my lathe together, looking forward to attempting to come close.
Thanks Brian, enjoy your lathe!
Great job, Lewis.
Thank you David!
Great work Lewis 👍👍👍
Thank you Rob!
Great video. Beautiful piece. Like the jig. Will probably try that soon.
Thanks Richard, I appreciate you watching!
