Turning a Flat Walnut Spiral into a Stunning 3D Resin Bowl

I recently transformed flat walnut spirals into a vibrant 3D resin bowl. I laser-cut identical walnut layers, carefully aligned and glued them, then filled the spiral patterns with resin mixed with pink interference mica powder. After some patience and two pours, I turned the piece on the lathe, revealing the hidden spiral design and the resin’s striking optical effect. I finished by sanding, sealing, and buffing to a beautiful shine. Really happy with how this concept came to life—let me know your thoughts or questions!
