Started on a Yew bowl, the log had quite a lot of split & shake but I thought I had managed to cut a clean half, the outside was going well and I was happy with the shape and finish however, a large split started showing up.
It didn't appear to go too deep so I decided if I left it quite thick, it would be Ok...
Almost to the right depth, the crack had now opened up quite a lot...
With only a couple of last passes with the chisel needed to even it up, I tried to tidy the rim...
Which probably wasn't the best idea! In hindsight I probably should of just sanded the rim afterwards.
But then; hindsight is a wonderful thing!
Bummer! :(
