Carving a Square Bowl

Here's the latest bowl carving! This time around I decided to do a square platter from a chunk of Big Leaf Maple I've been saving in the corner of the shop. This time I went with a diamond embedded grinding disc on the grinder instead of the carbide tipped Graff Speedcutter that I used on the Root Bowl. The grinding disc isn't as aggressive so it takes a little longer but there is more control and less chance of accidental damage to the material.

Finishing the Wood Carving Maple Root Bowl- Jason Michael Kotarski

The Big Leaf Maple Root Bowl is finished and ready to ship! It wad fun getting to finally use the branding iron my wife gifted to me for our "wood" anniversary. She just couldn't bring herself to find something in wood that I wouldn't say "I can make that", lol.

Check out the channel for more video as I hope to really expand the content during these rainy cold dark Pacific Northwest Winter days.

Found this piece of root wood and decided to try out the new Speedcutter disc from Graff. Ended up with a little bowl that would be a great presentation piece or centre table piece! I'll put it up on the Amazon Handmade store so someone can have a unique conversation piece for the holiday's!!!
