wood turning a big spalted maple bowl, from a log to a bowl ruff. the bowl ruff will dry for a year and the bowl will be finished. Green wood, this is much easier to cut, and turn at this stage.

WOW… you don't hang about! That's going to be a beautiful bowl.
The center is the hardest part to turn as it is not moving very much. It is nice to drill it out and turn around it. It is also a nice way to set a depth to turn to.
WOW beautiful bowl. I have always loved the spalted maple look. One day I will have a guitar built that is all spalted maple. Do you make bowls like this and then sell them? If you do sell them I would love to buy a spalted maple bowl from you. Also can you make a spalted maple dinner table and or a coffee table?
I noticed you screwed the face plate in to the bottom after turning the outside. Don't you have a chuck? As the screw holes will determine how deep you can go when you turn it for the second time?
Frank, you had to age/dry the walnut bowl for 5 years, but you turned this maple bowl to finish much more quickly -apparently. Is that just because they are different species and the maple is less prone to cracking???

Looks great. awesome shop Huge bandsaw……WWOOOOW and you are quick haha
it never feels that fast. ha ha
thanks, I'll put up something when i finish it.
Nice shop! Quite the band saw. I want your lathe, too. 😉
Frank.Is your shop for hobby or is it your bussiness . Great tools
Hobby slowly tuning into a business. I'm a sucker for big tools.
If I may ask: you drill a pilot hole at 1:12 but I don't get what you use it for?

Fungus gets into the wood and makes pretty patterns. I don't know that this piece of wood is that far along.
great looking bowl! I wish I had such a big bandsaw.
Always feels like a waste when you hollow a big bowl like this, I wish coring systems were cheaper.
what do you use such big bows for?? great videos! Like the Oversized tools
mostly for show.
cool!!! and i love the high speed, nice vid
A coreing system is a good investment for you. In a few bowl that you save it will pay for it's self. Just a thought.

Excellent vid, loved everything about it, including the awesome grain hidden in the wood.
