New Segmented Bowl #2

Mark Kauder. Phenix City, AL

>This is another bowl using the same pattern as Bowl #1, but different wood and different neck treatment. It too is 9.75" in diameter, made of Canarywood, Bloodwood and Yellowheart. Lacquer finish.

This will probably be the bowl that I donate to the AAW Auction (a little undecided).

Critiques are welcome.

Thanks,

Mark

Beautifully done as usual. I'm not sure what it would take to photograph this but it would definitely be easier than the black ones you had at the southern States Symposium. Try using one light and shine it so it hits the top and one side equally. This will hopefully give you less overall reflection. The opposite side will get darker but as long as the detail is there that wiould be fine.

>Hello Mark,

I am a little bummed that you didn't use the full swing of your lathe. :) I think you had a spare 1/4" to go!!

They are both fantastic Mark. You work is really wonderful, and should bring a big price at the auction.

>Mark,

Your work is fantastic, I am a little new to both this forum and to turning but do like doing the segmented stuff also.

I read your post on your finish methods, thanks for the detailed description, I filed this info just in case I ever get to a higher skill level close to yours, right now I am pleased with a couple coats of friction polish!

I really like your design on the bowls and the necks are really neat!

Thanks for showing your work, it is truly an inspiration to me to keep trying to increase my skills and someday attempt to do more artistic pieces like yours, they are beautiful!

>Yep, would look good on my shelf next to the other one; then I could sell one and still have a segmented piece. I always said if I ever wanted a segmented piece I would buy it (rather than make it); never even thought about buying 2 of em though. Nice work Mark! (Y'all better buy a Mark K piece while you can afford one)

>Hey Mark.

This is fantastic. Form, segmentation, grain, and colors are way cool.

I've got some catching up to do as I've been vacationing in a world called Marco Island, Florida for the past 10 days. AWESOME place if you ever get to go down there.

So I'll catch up on all these postings and messages then break open the lock to the shop in a day or so.

Take care and thanks for posting this gem.

(but my brain is still on Marco Island)
