Jospeh and his 1st finished bowls - pics

[Dennis Peacock]

Pardon me while I pop my buttons here. I spent some time with Joseph this weekend to help him finish turn two of his now dry bowls. Dad helped him throughout the process, but he's getting the hang of bowl turning. :D

Here are two of his finished bowls. Both are Maple provided to him by Mark Cothren, Thanks Mark!!!!

Both bowls are about 7" across and about 3" tall.
Sanded through 400 grit and finished with a single coat of BLO (his choice of finish). We still have to buff them out, but that will be in a few days.

Needless to say....I'm pretty proud!!!!!

Doggone if it ain't genetic! Joseph you did great on your first two bowls! Realizing that it's genetic..........I'm depressed and in deep trouble!

Are those bowl for eating out of, just looking pretty, or for giving hair cuts?

Dennis,


Have you lost your mind????

Do you realize what this is going to do for your lathe time? You will probably have to buy a new lathe just for your talented son...:) :) :)

[Doug Thompson]

Jospeh, to cool! I hope you had fun turning with dad. In a couple years ask for your own PM lathe.

Be safe!

[Christopher K. Hartley]

Great Bowls there Joseph! Now keep studying under the master(Dad) and you'll soon gain the title "Bowl Meister".:)

[Tony Sizemore]

That has got to make you very proud. I hope that my little one will someday want to pickup a gouge and hang with the old man in the shop.
He did a great job!!!

[Joe Mioux]
