Angular Oak Bowl

Initial Bowl Blank Shaping the outside

Made from a large piece of oak I picked up from the local saw mill. There seemed to be a few promising features at one end.

Initial hollowing of the inside of the bowl More serious hollowing!

I've opted for a change from the sweeping bowls I usually make. The idea I had for this one was from an Egyptian water.

The finished bowl came out as I'd planned, with sharp angles and an undercut lip inside.
