Ray Allen shows how to build
this beautiful bowl
We've long admired Ray Allen's stunning segmented bowls. So we asked the Yuma, Arizona, turner to show us (and you) how to make one. While watching Ray build a segmented bowl blank, we quickly uncovered the secret to his success-painstaking precision.
