Need Nomenclature Help

MarkSLSmith

My google fu is kaput. What do you call the product that you make by turning a shallow bowl, then saw it in half, then glue the two halves together? With a foot and a lid, it ends up being a box, but for the life of me I can't find the article in AAW.

Thanks,

Mark

His are generally presented as what I would call a "suspended form".

Others may have different names.

Sounds like the work of Stephen Hogbin but it seems like there was just an article about that in American Woodturner not long ago. I will have to look. I just posted a flower that i did using that technique.

The name or an How To?

Charlie belden

Steven Hatcher, Marilyn Campbell and Alan all use what I call The Split Bowl technique.

Here’s a link to an How To, which includes a link to a video by Allen Carter
