Wyoming Wood Turner - Unique Wood Bowls,
Boxes, and Other Gifts
Wyoming Wood
Turner Designs Catalog
Utility Items
For thousands of years wood has been
used to make plates, bowls, cups and even vessels that hold dairy
products—safely.
Research has concluded recently that
bacteria cannot live long on the surface of wood when cared for
properly: (see
WOOD CARE).
The pieces you find here have been sealed and finished with food safe
products. They make great salad bowls but can also be used to prepare
and serve other menu items.
The best precaution for your wooden bowl is to wash it promptly,
scrub it if necessary, dry it and store it out of direct heat and
sunlight.

Walnut Salad
Bowls
I recently acquired a very large walnut
tree. This beautiful wood can be turned into salad bowls
from 6” to 15”. A salad bowl set is a gift that would be
valued for many generations. You will be hard-pressed to
find larger, solid wood bowls at these prices.

 This
walnut tree was 35 inches at the base. It will produce 1000
bowls and probably more. The photo below this one shows a
few of the rough-turned bowl blanks that are drying and
waiting to be finished. This wood will make excellent Salad
Bowls. I have many that approach 16 inches in diameter and
5 inches high. This size is really hard to find. |
|
Bowl blanks are normally turned when the wood is heavy with
moisture, then left to dry over 5 or 6 months. They will
move and warp….. then are re-turned on the lathe, made round
again and a finish is applied.
Prices will vary
