Peter,

That’s certainly a very clever adaptation. Your wife must be delighted.

I’m going to quote Steve Palm here Peter.

What a great idea and what fun is a project if it doesn’t stretch you a little.

Very nice work!

Excellent reproduction. That looks like it took a long time to glue up then turn, but I bet it was a lot of fun.

Thanks for looking and for the comments.

I’d like to make another one of these tables. At the time, I had not done much turning, so I guess what you don’t know can’t hurt you. I had a few guys at the woodworkers club coaching me, but they sure kept a good distance when that bowl was spinning. I wonder if there is an easier way to make such a large bowl..
