- Hello and welcome to my wood-crafting channel.
Oh the joy in working with up-cycled skateboard decks is just too much fun. I wasn't planning on this project having enough stock to make two bowls but it turned out that way (pun intended). What do you think? The two pieces of each bowl were glued 90 degrees to each other to create the offsetting rainbow pattern. Search the internet with some variation on how to "make a turned bowl from one board" and you will see a few methods to do this. I used the lathe to cut my bowl rings. Another method is to use the band saw but the ring half's need to be glued back together and this might be fine as that can crate some really cool patterns if using a glue up with different colored woods.

They look fantastic Michael.
Great video and amazing freehand cutting of the rings.
Take care.
Cheers, Huw
Thank you for the kind words! The freehand was off a few degrees but the slices were thick enough for me to “turn out” the error. Have a great day, Michael
Lots of work you put in to the preparation. Beautiful bowls.
Yes, It is a lot of prep work but always worth the effort. Thanks for commenting. Michael
FINALLY! Someone found a use for skateboards!
(I used to use them to haul out the trash cans.)

Steve, I used too ride them on ramps in a former life….they are fun to woodwork with no matter. Cheers! Michael
Very cool bowls. How did you add all the colours?
I didn’t add any of the colors! The skate deck’s already have the color in the wood from the factory. Cheers and thanks for watching. Michael
Love it. Thanks. Did you use the drum sander to remove the tread? I have a bunch (40?) boards but heaitant to get started in tread removal. No drum sander in my small shop.
David,
No drum sander. I use a heat gun to soften the treads adhesive. Then use a puffy knife to get under the tread and start to peal it loose. Once enough is free I wrap it around a 3/4 inch dowel and peel it all off. Do all this while maintaining some heat on the immediate area your pealing off. Using clamps I make a holder to direct the heat in order to free up both hands. Good luck, Michael
Sapper not to many know what that means, are you retired?
Semi retired! And Sapper is actually my given surname! How are you familiar with the term Sapper?
@@SapperWoodworking I was a 12/21B in the military that is the Sapper I was referring to never heard that name outside of the military. Certainly never heard it as a proper name. Pretty cool.
