Woodturning my very first segmented bowl
This is my very first segmented bowl build and turning. I couldn't be happer with the final product, the dark Walnut with the lighter Ambrosia Maple combination turned out beatiful. I can't wait to make more in the future.

I often do things I don’t record because it is better off not on record anywhere…lol…nice turn!
I've turned some segmented pieces,thry turned out ok.
Great job. I was also worried the first time I turned a segmented bowl. That really hit home when turning the inside with all of the edges and trying to not dig in too deep with the tool. I suggest turning one just using padauk wood. It is really rich looking after adding the finish.
Love the choice of wood! Turned out very pretty!

Thanks so much! 😊
I like your choices of wood 🪵 it's going to be really cool. And also as a suggestion on something like you got there I'm suggesting maybe using the EZ-WOOD TOOLS 🔧 only because they are Carbide. I use the EZ-WOOD Carbide for making pens 🖊 mainly because I don't have the blow out like high speed steel. I hope this will be of help for the next project.
Nicely balanced.
I’m just making one like this, my first too. I love turning it because all the cuts when turning are along the grain, no or little end grain.

Thank you! Cheers!
A piece of advice. Do your glue up of your rings to each other on the lathe. That way you can throw away your dumb bell and use pressure from the tail stock as your clamp, and you can glue up about half the rings and then go ahead and turn the inside of them that way your tool rest reaches to the bottom then add the rest of the rings. Also you need a steady rest

Yeah steady rest is in my list for sure. I do like the idea of turning the bottom layers and then adding the top layers later

Thanks, it was a fun build
Very nice
I have the same lathe and same issue with chatter... Drives me insane, next purchase or build will be a steady rest. Great job!

Yeah I wasn’t sure if I was doing something wrong or it was just the lathe…. A steady rest is on my list but I’m not sure which one to get…

@@jbwoodworkingofficial for sure, went through the same thought process. There some good homemade ones with videos on KZread. I may copy one of those, save myself 150 bucks. None the less, great job dude
At 13:30, I think many people would prefer to have the opposite camera view - showing the business end of the turning tool.
Thanks for your help 😅
Nice job. Very nice job. Did you have to adjust the miter saw once purchased to get accurate cuts?

Thanks. The miter fence I bought was extremely accurate. I need to make another segmented bowl, it was a lot of fun to make
Just about to do my first. Can I ask how you got the bottom off

Looks like I cut out the part of that video where I did that. I just used my parting tool to turn a groove in the pine just below the walnut and then used a saw to finish it off. It did take a bit of sanding to clean it up but it looks good.

If you have a set of cole jaws for a chuck you can just turn the bowl around and turn it off, also I hate to give un solicited advice, but if you turn the inside of the bottom of the bowl first, then glue the top and bottom together to finish would make it much easier to turn the bottom
How do you know the size of each layer? And what is the difference in each layers segment?
@jbwoodworkingofficial

Thats a great question. I basically made each layer 1/2" larger than the previous layer so 4", 4.5", 5" etc.. I went online and found a segment calculator that told me how large each segment should be for each ring. Later on I found a program called WoodTurnerPro that is really nice, you can print off a cut sheet after you design the bowl in the program and it will tell you how many pieces of each species of wood you need and the length along with the angle of each cut. It takes the mystery out of figuring this all out. I'm still learning to so it's really helpful.
where is the top?
First bowl? You'll get better with design....looks more like a bucket than a bowl.
