Step 5: Making a Vase [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ]


To hollow the vase, I use a boring bar 11 feet long of 2 inch solid steel weighing approximately 100 pounds. A 12 volt light is attached to the end of the boring bar so the inside work is visible and the translucence is used to gage the thickness from the outside.
