Step 3: Post-processing
Clean the parts while they are still in the machine and the vacuum is on. By doing this you can efficiently wipe over the complete surface. Sort the different parts and put them together.
Tip:
It is helpful to mark the front of the single pieces with adhesive tape so that you can assemble the pieces correctly.
Inspirations
Cut the bowl out two different types of wood and mix the parts during assembly.
Adding an engraving design or a name to the pieces creates a great effect. You can produce the bowls in advance and can add your customer's individual engraving afterwards.
