Over the years I have been tempted to add glass to my turnings. Note to self: turnings are spherical so mosaics have to be small! These three turned out well and the light reflections and color changes add a dynamic interest. The Ash bowl was initially turned when I was just getting started with turning. My local club (Bytown woodturners, Ottawa) insisted that I join them at a demo at the local home show exhibition – I thought they were mad at the time, the experience was absolutely terrifying but fun.
