I need some help. I saw a thread here that referenced an article on how to cut circles on a 45° and cut them out with a scroll saw. Then stack and glue them to turn a bowl. I need to find that article as I would like to try this operation. any help would be wonderful.:confused:
Thanks in advance!!!

It sounds to me like is a bowl from a board technique.....Michelle Richards has done several and I think has a tutorial somewhere on this. Good Luck!

Google "Bowl from board" and you'll quite a slew of articles, many in pdf format (or you can add "filetype: pdf" to your search and get just those).

If you draw out the profile you hope to get, you can plan the cuts on the individual rings so that you do not need to have a cone shaped bowl. The starting material should be a bit thicker, but then you should be able to get a more "bowly" shape.
