Spring Turning - Bark Edge Birds Beak Bowl

Late winter and early spring is when I prune trees in my yard. Sometimes, this is a source of both wood and inspiration.
In this case, I cut an apple limb that is perfect for a small birds beak bowl. A birds beak bowl utilized and entire cross section of the limb as can be seen by the pith running through the bowl sides.
This bowl is about 3 inches long, about 2.5 inches wide, and 2 inches tall. Although not extremely wet, I let it dry for a week in a craft paper bag before sanding and applying walnut oil.
Enjoy.
p.s. If you would like a more in depth demonstration than my weekly videos, please contact me for an IRD (Zoom Demo) on this or other topics.

I call the style a live edge saddle bowl - since it looks like a saddle bowl to me. Thanks for all your work and sharing your experience with all of us! You remain the chuck/rechucking king.

Cool, thanks. Interesting Name. Alan
For extra credit, I wore a full faceshield while watching this video. You can't be too careful.

Thanks, Alan! Really appreciate the tips about the sap not being up yet and the idea of using the wrapping plastic.

Thanks 👍 Suggestions? Alan
Great idea with the plastic wrap. I've recently done a few birds beak bowls myself but I tend to " close" the mouth a little more than what you have done. Thanks for sharing.
