Segmented square Corian bowl.

[Sturdee]

Using some small off cuts of Corian I made this segmented square shallow bowl.

The pieces were glued together using medium CA glue and left to cure for a day before trimming square on the table saw. I held it on Cole jaws to centre the piece and clamped it to it with some small clamps in order to turn the shallow inside . Size is 130*40mm. No machine sanding but all hand sanded and polished.

Here is the front view:

and finally the bottom.

Took a while but it will look nice on my desk to hold paperclips, etc.

Enjoy.

Bit bloody lairy. You won't lose it.

I'reminded of that line from Monty Python and the Quest for the Hol Grail:

"What are you doing?"

" Averting my eyes!"

Like it!!

Comes from hosting a colouring and glitter get together.

Wow, funky. I like it! This corian stuff looks interesting, is it heat resistant enough to perhaps turn an ashtray out of?

Cheerio, Tom.

I've made a few slimline pens from it, but getting hold of bright colours is not easy.

As Corian is a type of plastic I doubt that it could be used for ashtrays.
