Bob Ball got the show and tell started |
Bob's turning had carving on it as well as some finishing issues |
Jim Vasi explains his "bow tie" technique |
A template is used with a special router bit to create the inlay area on the turning |

The template mounting needs to be considered |
There is a template for the inlay area and a template to create the inlay material |
The inlay material is created using any material desired for contrast |

Frank Stanko showed some of his platters made from crotch wood |
He also shared a technique to "create spalting lines" where they can help with wood flaws |
Frank had a nice assortment of spalted bowls and crotch wood platters |
After the show and tell session, we moved into the "ask the experts" question and answer session |
