Making of a Bowl/Dish/Basket with a Band Saw.....Wait What?.....

[comp56]

who said ya can't make a bowl/dish/basket with a band saw?......here is a bowl I made using a band saw, not only is it a bowl but you can put it away flat......

it doesn't hold liquid but it is great for nuts, fruit or candy......

started with a piece of black ash, Maple, and Oak again.....a few of my future projects with be made from this as I have much of it .....

cut out a pattern and then glue the first inch back together 

put a folding support on the bottom and bingo .....it's a Bowl........notice the side view and bottom......

Wow, that's uber cool. Makes me want a band saw but my attempt would look more like a 2x4 chewed up by a Rottweiler. So it's basically like a wooden spring? Does it take a lot of force to flip the lever to deploy he bowl ? I want to see a video of it in action!

My grandmother used to have something like that but it was in the shape of an apple I thing. Pretty cool stuff. Yours looks much nicer, love the multiple woods. The finish looks great, is that just some sort of wax or oil?
