Woodturning – Basket Illusion Bowl

In this video I turned a Bowl on the lathe. I decorated it with
a technique called basket illusion, it’s a process of burning and coloring the wood. I was going to make this last week as a Memorial Day project, but the pens didn’t get here till Saturday. The bowl is 11 1/2″ long and 3″ in dia. I decorated it with the American flag.
