Chuck Schuldt, also known as WoodChuck by his fellow carvers, “turned” a bowl. Chuck commented, “It is called a "live edge bowl" because I’ve finished the bowl with the bark on it. I had to make the walls a little thicker than I would have normally to keep the bark intact. The bowl is nine inches outside. Please note that I was also able to retain some moss on the edge/bark. The bowl is from black walnut that a friend of mine gave me. It was a little green and was relatively easy to turn. I turned the bowl from the side of the piece of wood, giving it the "dished" look from the side view.”
