I have a brand new funnel that I made out of East India Rosewood last night. I kept thinking that I could make the bowl a little thinner. And then Voila out came a funnel. :doh:
 
Why don't you try to salvage it by adding a new bottom in a different wood or just a stem and a foot and change it into some sort of tall shallow bowl?
 
Dang it, I hate that when that happens..... :doh:
No pics...didn't happen. ;) Although it takes a real glutton for punishment (like you or me, Stu) to take pictures of shop-made funnels and post them on the Intarweb.

Sorry to hear about the mishap, Shawn. Why does it seem to only happen on pretty or expensive pieces of wood? :doh:My last funnel was one of the prettiest pieces of walnut I've found.
 
He/she who hasn't made a funnel, hasn't made squat!
He/she who won't publish a picture of said funnel ain't made squat, either.

BTDT My ode to the hollow form is a tube.... :eek: :eek:
 
Bill that is funny.:rofl:

Shawn I made a funnel and saved it by getting the bottom squared. The glued a piece of walnut on. Finished turning it and the LOML uses it as a candy dish on her desk at work. It has had more comments than the vase I made her for her flowers. Here is my funnel.
