Since getting Woodsmith #170 I've been wanting to try these. This one is the first, solid Cedar, around 12" long, 3" high outside, 2 3/4" deep interior and about 4" wide. It's done with a CMT Bowl Bit with a top bearing. A template is made to the inside dimensions, the bowl routed, then the exterior is cut on the bandsaw. It's magic that a bowl this small can make chips almost knee deep!
The interior was sanded with a 2" pad with wave disks to 220.
Since these are intended for Nuts, Fruit, etc., the finish is Mineral Oil. I'll apply a couple more coats as this firat one soaks into the wood.
I'll be gluing some blanks for round bowls, bowls with partitions and some with handles.
Thanks for taking time to look.
