Yew and Box bowls

The yew is made from a 'crutch' log - where two branches divide from a stem, creating attractive grain patterns. And the boxwood is a perfect sphere inside and out; it is made by turning a log with a spherical dome on the end, cutting it in half, and then fitting it sideways in between two pieces of plywood with the spherical end trapped centrally and held in place by tightening wing nuts on three bolts through the plywood, to allow the interior sphere to be turned.
