One of the keys is the ability to index the headstock, whether built in or homemade |
Paul uses his marking tool, height spaced to indicate the centerline of the abrasive drum |
A die grinder with an abrasive head does the fluting work |
The work piece is indexed around as the abrasive is used to sand in the flutes |

Depth, spacing, and radius of abrasive are all the creative choices available |
An example of the fluting technique done by Paul |
The same concept can be applied to the outside of a turning |
Paul marks and demos the technique on the outside of the bowl |

This can be done on the axis of rotation creating fluting |
With a tilting table, you can do off axis fluting creating spirals |
