Making an Economy Bowl
In this video I am trying my hand at making a bowl from a board or as some people refer to them an economy bowl. I am still very much a novice wood turner and although this bowl didn't turn out as well as I would have liked I learned a lot by making it. There are a few things I will do differently on the next one that I learned by doing this one and hopefully the results will be better.

The third time to watch the video, each time it just becomes a no brainer, but more remarkable what one can do turning.
Dave, i hope you are still making bowls like this. The bowl may have been your first attempt at a bowl like this but its far better than you seem to think. Its great!
I am addicted to wood turning videos. I've seen tons getting ready to start turning myself. Your work is beautiful. While I won't start here, I aspire to doing something as gorgeous as this one day.

Great piece of art
Really enjoyed. Nice work
Great job Dave. I couldn't figure out how you cut the angles until I realized you had the bed tilted on the band saw. The Bowl looks awesome. Merry Christmas. Thanks for all the information the other day. It was great meeting you. Let me know if you need any more project wood. I have plenty at the house that is dry.

Great economical solution!
Watching again, I’m a beginner turner so I need all the help I can get lol. Beautiful Piece
I've watch many of this kind but this video makes me fell to be like u... Ur so creative... If I want to be a wood turner ur the one I will learn from... # 5 stars ✋
Very well done. Excellent video.
Thanks Dave Beautiful Bowl, I will have to try one someday.
That's a great looking bowl there. One of these days, sooner or later I'll get the tools to cut stuff and make bowls like that also.
Very nice work.

Super beautiful, GREAT job!!! The only thing slightly negative I'll say (and believe me, I'm reaching here!) is Titebond 3 leaves dark joints. Titebond 2 is just as waterproof (relatively speaking) with lighter joints.
Great Job And thanks for posting !

Came out nice. I think the great thing about these bowls is the ability to make some great designs easily. If you would have offset each layer you could have had changed what the bowl looks likes. Kind of a swirl pattern. Just a thought for next time. Ken

Great video and fabulous bowl ! Two side thoughts: great to see I am not the only one to use my table saw or bandsaw top as a workbench and thought about your angled cutting and neighbor from many years ago who had , think it was called a ring master or ring maker and it sort of used your method. I think the company went under as I have not seen or heard about them in years. I'm looking forward to watching your other videos.
Absolutely beautiful bowl Dave! I just started turning myself but I'm still on twig pots and mushrooms. Be careful with that bandsaw. Mine bit me the other day now I can't do anything for several weeks. Been woodworking for 35 years and this was my first accident with a saw. Got complacent. 😔
Beautiful...
Can you share the dimensions of the circles you cut and also at what angle did you set the bandsaw at? What a great idea, I would love to see if I could repeat what you have done if you are willing to provide details.
nice work
I wish I could create something like this. Great job👍👍👍👍

Awesome job ! I believe the lathe is the greatest tool for individual creativity !! I'll be looking for your next project ! In the mean time, you have inspired me to get back out in my shop and come up with something on my own .... or just copy THIS beautiful work of Art !! Thanks again !!!
I like the construction process, starting with the glue up but then the bandsaw thru me, not expecting that, but efficient.

Great video and technique! I noticed you are using Titebond III, totally waterproof glue. I love Titebond glues but find that the III has a darker color and makes bond lines more apparent. I am going to try to copy your work but use Titebond II which is very water resistant and makes bond lines less noticeable in my opinion. I have no plans to have this bowl submerged for any appreciable time. I am now going to look for your later versions. Thanks!
Beautiful
Hi there, I am from India, I am in the field of Laser cutting and Engraving, you have titel of your video "economic" but you have did lot of work ... Very nice video and hattsoff your work... Like it
@stuinNorway

The "economy" in the title comes from using thinner strips of wood and gluing together, rather than use a single, large expensive piece of timber. Thus is can often be made using offcuts from other projects rather than buying new wood.
Nice Bowl Dave. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your Family

I am not much a fan of segmented bowls, but I like what you have done on this bowl. I love the way cutting each ring at an angle preserves the "stripes." Never would have thought of that. Any thoughts on how to minimize the glue lines for each layer? All-in-all a good job, Dave.

Great job, Dave! At what angle do you put your band saw table when you cut those sections? I think I have that info in some notes around here, but cannot find them at the moment. I have a few pieces of cherry, walnut, maple, mahogany, and bubinga that I think would make a great gift for a Christmas party at the Toyota Foundation where I am consultant. High fives, sir! Greetings from the Elvis Presley Birthplace -- Tupelo, MS!

Found the info in my notes. The first cut is made at a 90-degree angle. Each subsequent cut is made with the table tilted at 45-degrees. While there are variations to these, those two angles seem to be the most common. Keep up your great work!
Hi Dave, watched your video a few times on the economy bowl. I'm missing a few things alone the line. You glued about 8 boards the first time. Did you glue the second set to the first set or double sided tape between. I've tried this on thinner wood and didn't do so well. you do have great control of the band saw on the semi circles. I'd like to hear back from you ..Thanks Mike

Greetings from South Africa. Like you, I too have only begun woodworking late in life. I came across your video and was amazed. At what angle did you cut the half-rounds (I think one calls them that) before the gluing process and lay-out began? Thank you for sharing this video. Regards. Michael Dean-Jackson
