Elephant Bowl

The Segmented Woodturners chapter is having a challenge. Everyone has to turn the same segmented bowl with dimensions specified. It is then up to each person to add things to it to make it some form of creature. Working with my grandson, we turned it into a lidded box that hopefully looks like an elephant.
It is now a fun little candy bowl.

Nicely done Al, and segmented trunk as well! I was thinking this could be used for peanut treats for the large animals however they actually don't like peanuts. Perhaps tree bark. (or chocolate bark for your grandson)

I was waiting for this to show up Al! I would add that the challenge started as a salt pig and quickly evolved into a menagerie of animals! I think it’s our low sodium restrictions and advanced age that did the salt pig idea in. Nice job Al!
