The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Isn't this blog supposed to be about wooden bowls?


Most of the chips or shavings TW has been making in the last two weeks have been with a chainsaw. This bowl came from the end of a firewood log that was a little wet yet. Who knows if it will turn out when it dries out but it looked good enough for the Internet which hides blemishes. It is turned around the center of the tree instead of being flipped sideways like most bowls so the grain looks different.
