Scroll Saw Double Swag Bowl Part 1
Channel: Twin Oaks Treasures
Date: 2024-02-22

For the next video in this bowl series I will make the double swag bowl from Carole Rothman's book.  This is what she calls a laminated bowl.  I have experimented with some lamination on the past few bowls but this is a different level, a little more complex blank to construct.  That went fine but the first ring was off by about 1/8 inch when cut.  That means that the angle was incorrect but all the numbers were correct as I checked and re-checked.  So she says to increase the angle if the ring is larger than the base so I moved to 29 degrees and everything matched up very well.  I thought that the bowl was ruined but with careful alignment and glueing it was saved when the final sanding was done.  It did not line up as well as I wanted but was ok.  I will do this one again sometime just to see if  I can improve.  This is part one of the process there will be a part two shortly.
