Link wouldn't open for me. Is this the big... no, huge... bowl that the guy's nearly inside it while turning it?

[Keith Spaniel]

Thats great,
Its a good thing he had his face shield on. Most Europeans get 2 or 3 months for vacation each year. (To much time on their hands)
I would like to seen how they glued up all that pine..

I had to go to the original page--there's a link at the top of the page----to get the pics to open. The wood apparently is spruce. I'm very surprised of a couple things.....1. a German is using a Swedish made Husqvarna saw, 2. same said German isn't wearing any protective equipment while making a dangerous cut easing all the edges. That said, WOW!!! That's probably the coolest bowl turning I'll see. I wonder how many RPM it was turning at. It seems like they removed a tire & lashed the axle to the pile of logs to ensure that it wouldn't move.

imagine a catch on that!

Yep that is a big bowl. That thing has been around for a while.

My favorite part is when they festgeschraubt the bowl. ;)
