Making a Maple Bowl with Maple and Walnut Inserts

I really like the idea of taking a damaged wood turned bowl rough and fixing it with wood inserts. In this project, I made segmented round inserts from maple and walnut wood. I cut out the knots from a monolithic maple wood turned bowl blank and replaced them with the round segmented pieces. In both the insert and the cut out in the bowl, I made a 3ﾟ taper on the contacting surface of each. I cut this taper with a 3ﾟ tapered bit on the CNC machine. This taper allowed the insert to be pressed into the bowl to get a very tight fit.
What I really like about the way this project turned out is that the wood grain of the bowl and the geometric inserted pieces talk to each other. The inserted pieces aren’t just in a random place. They are where the knots were so the form of the grain and the form of the segments have a relationship. I think this is what makes this art as it goes beyond random adjacencies.

Woodturning videos are not usually my favorite videos put out by woodworkers but you sir are a completely different animal! Your woodturning videos are riviting. I love the combination of problem solving, CNC, wood harvesting story and narration. It's always a pleasure to see a new Howarth video pop up in my feed!

Who does the laundry and how many washing machines and dryers have you gone through? Thanks for the voice over sound bites, it makes the video so much more interesting. And yes, my mind screamed when the branch was destroyed and in all honesty, I love the cracks and what we see as imperfections but Mother Nature knows best...most of the time.

I like the addition of you talking directly to the camera like at 6:55. I have to admit I think it's such a shame the natural branch in the knot wasn't discovered in time to be cast in resin! That could have looked so amazing and been such an unbelievable stroke of luck. No use crying over spilt milk though, the end result is still gorgeous. It was clever of you to first CNC the hole to one of the smaller blanks so you had some protection. That's something I would never have thought of myself but seems so obvious once you know it.

The old branch wound would have looked phenomenal cast in resin- maybe next time? I'm always picking up scraps from work with little inclusions like that or spots where I know a void will be. My favorites are where branches were rubbing and creating this finish smooth pocket or edge along the branch.....one day I'll do something with the box under my kitchen table!
