January 2024 Meeting

We had a normal meeting in January which featured the business meeting, wood auction, show & tell as well as a discussion and walk through from Gib Corl on how he creates bowl blanks using left over hardwood flooring as well as how he recycles home wiring into a nice rim decoration.

The steps involved include:

  • Cutting off the tongue and groove and bottom grooves of the flooring
  • Sanding off the finish
  • Gluing each layer at right angles to get striping colors
  • Mounting with a faceplate using soft screws, 
  • Using carbide tools to turn
How do you turn hardwood flooring into bowls?

Show & Tell

Some of the bowls made from hardwood flooring and two have a twisted wire decoration in the rim
