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”.

Tww product

The Tww division of TWW Enterprises announces a new version of the Bottomless Bowl. They call it the Tao Bowl. Tww is short for Tao wu-wei.

The Tao is empty like a bowl.
It may be used but its capacity is never exhausted.
It is bottomless, perhaps the ancestor of things.

quoted from the Tao-te-Ching chapter 4
