You want to make a bowl but you don't have a lathe ?! Here is a way to make it. 

 

I wanted to make my own bowl but I don't have any lathe so here is how I made it

Needed materials :

  • Wood board

 Matériels :

  • A scroll saw
  • A drill
  • A belt sander
  • A multitool like a Dremel to sand

Etapes : 

  • Define the dimensions of your project. Here the base of the bowl is about 10cm of diameter and each tier the cicle is enlarged of 1,5cm.
  • Drill at 30° on the circle line.
  • Cut with the scroll saw at 30°.
  • Small test without assembly in order to check that everything is ok
  • Assembly with the wood glue (without the base in order to sand easily the inside. 
  • Sand the inside with the Dremel.
  • Glue the base.
  • Sand the outside of the bowl bith the belt sander
  • Finishing and varnishing

Using this way I observed that this can also apply to create lampshade and all kind of hollow objetcs.
