Just finished a maple Thanksgiving themed bowl - 10" x 4" (26 cm x 10 cm)

Painted with chalk paint and then aged with colored wax. Inside is finished with Tung oil.

I am thoroughly impressed by your ingenuity! I'm assuming that its a fairly manual process with this setup, where you run several jobs all the way around the bowl while rotating the bowl in between jobs? Probably not as convenient as a set it and forget it machine but after a quick Google I see that the cost savings are SIGNIFICANT.

Excellent work my friend, thanks for sharing a picture of your setup.

Yes, I burn one image and then rotate the bowl 10°. The indexer allows precise degree adjustments that are repeatable.
