“Hollow Form”
Woodworker: Jim Berger
Inspired by the work of fellow turners Stephen Hatcher and Dennis Liggett, Berger made this maple burl hollow form, 8 in. dia. by 7-3/4 in. tall. After sketching the design on the vessel, he used power carvers to excavate for the inlay. He then glued in the minerals (calcite and mica stems and howlite flowers) with cyanoacrylate glue, sanded everything flush, and applied several coats of lacquer.
