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.

    Really nice. Is it true that the main advantage of a the laser over a wood burner is getting that really fine detail? Did you do the line above and below with a wood burner or a laser as well?

      The line is a groove from a chisel and then a wire pressed into the groove while the bowl spun fast - burning the groove.

      You can get super fine detail with a wood burner. The advantage of a laser is time and repeatability.
