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.
