I Made a Bowl
April 20th, 2008 by admin
I made a bowl. I’m so proud of it, I have to share. I’m so proud of it, I had to ask Chip for his camera at dinner tonight because I knew he had a photo of it, and I missed my bowl. It’s a really pretty bowl.
I took a bowl turning class at Woodcraft today, so that I could better use the lathe that Chip got me for my birthday. The guys at Woodcraft are really nice and helpful and generally happy people to spend time with, so I recommend them for all your woodworking needs.
They helped me make this:
You will see more pictures of this, and of other bowls I will make using the techniques I learned today. It was a fun course, and I loved it, but not as much as I love my bowl. Now I realize why Chip is so attached to the bats he makes.
Note: Chip has since made himself another bat and is no longer considering stealing my brother’s birthday gift back from him.

While I don’t like making such racy comments in mixed company . . . Check out the BOWL on THAT Chick!!! We’ve been thinking about upgrading our salad set, is there a web sight for Angelpoop Bowls? JBF

Eww … I don’t think calling them Angelpoop bowls is such a good idea. You guys should come up and play with all of our woodworking stuff some weekend … I am now qualified to teach you how to make a bowl. Sort of. But it’s all sorts of fun, and now I can make wooden presents!

Incredible! You rock! I agree–no Angelpoop Bowls. That just sounds kinda nasty.
