Ashe vase with wedges

[roger fischer]

Today l show you how i made a Vase out of ash tree wood


The log was 164 KG at the beginnig


The hollowing was quite hard when i got closer to the core wood, the tool was jumping a lot


il use several wooden wedges the stop the big crack and in the core wood to avoid the cracks there as well


I sanded it up to 500 grit, then i used woodturner oil for the first finish to dry it much slower


High: 51cm
Diameter: 46cm
Thickness: 10mm


hope you enjoy it

Very nice, for sure.

[Robert D Evans]

I think you need a bigger drill bit. Nice job.

[roger fischer]

Thank you for your comment

Im not Sure how big the drillbit can be for my Machines, thus one is 72mm
Best regards Roger

What is the technique for putting the bowties into a turning? Specialty tools? Are there any resources (tutorials, demos or videos) to show this?

Nice work!

[William C Rogers]

That is impressive. Very well done.
