Woodturning a Potbelly Bowl with Chevron Ring
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- I wanted to do a walnut potbelly bowl with a special feature ring. I made alternating chevrons from strips of padauk, purpleheart and yellowheart and it turned out pretty good. But, I wish that I had made the feature ring slightly taller. I used five 3/8" strips. If you attempt this design, I would recommend using at least seven strips at a minimum. I think you'll be happier with it.

I was gifted this bowl for Christmas! I love being able to see the time that went into its creation! Thank you Dan!!!!!! 😁
Thank you Gwyneth!!!
Speechless, wow. I love how you also incorporate safety into each video and tips.
super tare 💋💋💙
You are also addicted in segmented turning as I am. In a few weeks I get my new lathe and will start again with that. The bowl is really cool!
Elegant.
Another beauty, Dan. The shape and feature ring compliment each other well.
All I can say is WOW WOW WOW, beautifully done.
George, as always, thank you very much for all of your kind comments on my art. It is very much appreciated, sir.
Dan each segmented bowl or piece you make is fantastic and stunning breathtakingly beautiful. This one is wow outstanding.
Kobie, you are very kind. Thank you.
very, very nice bowl. Piece of art!!
Sir, not only do you do amazing work, you have excellent taste in music.
That is so beautiful! That would absolutely look fantastic in my southwest home! Nice job Dan!👍😁

That is a very beautiful vase. The detail is outstanding.
Incredible piece.
Fantastic!!!
Omg, this is so beautiful! It’s like a mosaic in wood. You have amazing skills!
Lovely piece of work Dan.
You, my friend, are a true artist! As a new turner, I am learning so much watching these. I wish that you would put a little more information in. Like what you are using for finishing and a description in the below section. Thank you.
Hi Fred, thank you for watching.
Good gracious, this is marvelous!
Another gorgeous bowl!
You are so talented
Very nice! I like your method of making the feature ring. Thanks for sharing.
Another beauty Dan awesome, thanks for sharing.
Bellissima.
Ouuuuuuuutstanding!!!! Ya done good! Impressive & beautiful work.
Bonjour dan, quel travail, encore une fois c est magnifique, je me régale à regarder vos vidéos, bravo
Outstanding!
Lovely.
Nicely done.
beautiful bowl. You nailed it.
Absolutely beautiful, love your work.
Thanks for posting and sharing Dan. Thanks for the tip regarding the amount of rows on the feature ring. Also regarding the Rockler sled, I built a 'wedgie sled" plans and idea courtesy of Jerry Bennett. He has an amazing set of segmented videos. Anyway, thanks again and all tips are gratefully received.
I'm about to start my first segmented vase, 24 rows @16 segments per row. I wont be using too fancy a wood yet though, gonna build the confidence up. and see how it turns out.
I've subscribed and given the thumbs up, well deserved. Good luck with your new channel.
Regards and best wishes. T.
Thanks so much Tony. Good luck with your first segmented vase. Send me a picture!
Looks great and beautiful
Enjoyed and gave a Thumbs Up

Gorgeous 👍
great stuff Sir, I also like the cheat sheets you provide it makes it easier for me to copy you :)
Andrew, on my last piece, make the feature ring taller. I think you'll like it better that way.
you´re awesome man....congratulations
No me canso de ver. Me encanta 😀
Gracias Natalie.
Complimenti ottimo lavoro 👍 ammirevole
Grazie.
MUY BONITO👍👍
Beautiful piece Dan. How do you go about aligning the rights so they are all even?
Hi Scott, thank you. I'm just as careful as possible on the segmented feature ring pieces. There is really no special procedure for that. Thanks for watching.
That was one of the most enjoyable videos I have seen. I also see that you used Woodturner Pro software. Did you also use the companion software Lamination Pro to design the laminate that was imported into Woodturner Pro?
Thank you Ed. I like that software very much, but I haven't used the Laminate Pro yet. I need to. Thanks for watching.
@@LivingstonBrothersWoodcraft If you don't me asking I have a couple of questions on some cuts you made on the wedgie sled at the 2:39 timeline of the video. I am unclear what you were removing from the chevron pattern. Does each piece need to be cut like that? FYI here is a picture of my first segmented bowl but I really want to learn how to make the feature rings like you have shown. I do own both the LaminationPro and WoodturnerPro software but have not really taken advantage of it yet. imgur.com/R5a6KDd
@@edkorsberg6441 Hi Ed, Ok, at 2:39 you saw me cutting the top and bottom of the joined angled chevrons. What I then didn't show was me cutting the ends of each segment at 15 degrees so that I could form a concentric ring. I could have shown that, but I did so, in what could be viewed as, an unsafe manner that I did not want anyone repeating. I need to build a small table saw sled for those smaller cuts. And, I see that you sir are quite the turner yourself! Very nice work on that picture your showed me. Thanks for watching. --Dan
@@LivingstonBrothersWoodcraft Thank you. My first bowl turned out well however this notion of a detailed feature ring will be a challenge for me. I have practiced a bit on scrap wood but so far the consistency of the patterns is not acceptable. The LaminationPro software in theory allows for a bulk processing that ends up with a series of identical patterns. I believe it should work but I still need to gain more experience in order to pull this off. But it is something for me to strive for and I look forward to someday producing bowls on the level you have done.
👍
Muito bom!!!
Hi Dan
Love your work - thanks for sharing!
What model of Rockler Sled is that you use in this video please?
Thank you

Thank you Dennis. To my knowledge, it's their only table saw cross-cut sled. I really like it.
Dan I liked your segmented potbelly bowl. Could you show or tell how you pressed the rings together? I've made several seg bowls most were successful but I'd like to increase the ring clamping pressure.
Thanks
Hi, once I have my rings formed and glued together with a ring clamp, I let them sit for 24 hours. They are then run through my drum sander so that I have a nice even surface on both sides of the rings. (I recommend that you do NOT run your glued rings through a planer.) When I glue the rings together, I use a 32 lb dumbbell, which is shown in my videos. That amount of weight provides nice "clamp" pressure. However, if you use too much weight, you run the risk of "flexing" the wood and, depending on how the rings are sized, you could flex either the exterior side or interior side by too much weight, which will leave a bad gap. Let me know if this helps you. --Dan
@@LivingstonBrothersWoodcraft Thank you, I know not to run rings thru the planner, I did it once, then made a replacement ring.
How heavy is the weight you use. Seems so simple!
35 lbs.
What software do you use to design your bowls?
Thank you for watching. Woodturner Pro.
Gorgeous work! What sled do you use to cut the segments? I've used a wedgie sled but I don't think that's what you're using. How are you getting your angles so perfect in the rings?
Hi Ron, I'm using the Rockler cross cut sled. It is very accurate. Thanks for watching.
@@LivingstonBrothersWoodcraft So you find when using it you don't need to glue in halves and sand or any of those other tricks? How many segments per ring have you tried on it?
@@avramw yes, but you need to make absolutely sure that your sled is parrallel to your table and blade. I can cut any amount of segments within reason. I have done 12, 18, 24 and 30 segments per ring. I highly recommend it. Dan

um forte abraço
Great work. Where is a good place to get wood?
I order from Bell Forest Products. They are located in Upper Michigan. They offer free shipping on their lumber packs.
Thanks. Im in Georgia. Most all my work is segmented. I only post photos. Not good at videos yet. Maybe you can check out my work. Thanks
Very nice work Chris!
Do you want to sell it.
Thank you for your interest, but this one is already gone.

MNOP? LOL!
