A lot of faith in his glue, especially considering the trial and error fit of the triangles at the end of the build up.

Thanks Nick, nice to know you are concerned about me :wink:. Problem with this idea is the long continuous joints and I would need a variety of sizes in bowing balls. :D

I did wonder whether the joints would hold up

No you get one bowling ball

make a number of bowls that size
then you turn the bowling ball smaller and make a number that size etc



Interesting looking bowl though

I will give you maximum points for a vivid imagination.... :D

I did a bit of a clean up in the garage today and found things that I forgot I had. One of those items was a bowling ball. :U

send it to Jim

[coffenup]

send it to Jim

nah Jim would want to make the bowling ball shape out of segmented bits
it would have to have the right pattern to be used as a shaping jig

So much to try - so little time.

Looks good. Yet something else to try.
