Scalloped bowl - another method

George - do not worry and keep coming!  One could wait for perfection but a perfect example does not help anyone any more than my imperfect one unless some special technique is involved (I do wonder about vacuum bagging for clamping - any experience with complex objects welcome).  So the basic idea is already there.  And FWIW the joints are actually not bad - the issue as I said is that the 'petal' thickness varies - I can correct this another time.

JHA:
Well done, good ideas.
Thanks for the detailed photos and description.

In all fairness George tends  to say what most of us just think. The concept is great, and if you had posted as a trial what can make it better it would have been a different matter. So much gets lost in this medium that come across in face to face dialogue. Bottom line this is a great concept and needs you to go on with. Keep 'em coming. Us old fogies need something to shake us out of our lethargy.

Will,

To me, George's first comment came across as a very blunt 'put-me-down', neither warranted nor needed, let alone showing any respect.

Make what you will of his last comment -    "What you have atemted here is more advanced than most Woodturners could ever do inc me.I think even a Furniture maker would struggle . So not so bad  LOL"
