Small Anasazi Bowl Kit

Segmented bowls are among the most striking of turned forms, combining the art of pure shape and the art of decoration to create objects that fascinate the eye as much from ten inches away as from ten feet. These kits use staves, segmented and laminated rings, solid wood and veneers to add geometric patterns, accents, and embellishments to a wide variety of bowl shapes and sizes. Using no more than a bandsaw (except for the small bowl kits), a stationary sander (disc, belt, or combination) with an accurate miter guide, some clamps and a lathe, you'll be able to cut, fit, join and turn a whole collection of beautiful vessels, ranging from traditional native American seedpots to contemporary vases and open forms. Along the way, you'll learn the techniques you need to design, fit, assemble & turn your own segmented work, opening up a whole new branch of woodturning for your enjoyment.

Each kit comes with all the materials you need to assemble a bowl blank, along with thorough instructions and a template for turning. Components for the small bowl kits are cut, fitted, and glued up; all you need are a sander, clamps, a lathe and fundamental turning skills. For the large bowl kits you'll need a bandsaw to cut the provided wood into segments.
